Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yo, what's good, fam Zaden Cruz here, your resident digital
detox guru, back at it again with another truth bond
to blast your feed with. Let's talk about something that
plagues us all or at least ninety nine percent of
gen z crippling self doubt? Ever, feel like you're stuck
in a constant loop of comparing yourself to others, like
everyone else has their act together except for you, and
(00:22):
you're just winging it through life while desperately trying not
to trip over your own feet. Yeah, me too, But
guess what, that inner critic needs a serious time out.
We're here to flip the script and build some damn confidence.
First things first, self doubt is literally everywhere. It's like
that annoying friend who constantly reigns on your parade. Social media,
(00:42):
with its carefully curated lives and highlight reels doesn't help either.
It's easy to get sucked into this comparison game, thinking
everyone else has it figured out while you're still figuring
out how to fold a fitted sheet. Don't even get
me started on the pressure to be perfect like perfection
as even real. Fam, here's the deal. You got a
ditch that inner critic asap. It's whispering lies in your
(01:04):
ear telling you that you're not good enough, smart enough,
or pretty enough. Screw that noise. Your worth isn't determined
by likes, followers, or that influencer who's probably just struggling
with their own insecurities behind the filter. You are amazing, capable,
and worthy of love and respect even when you mess up.
And let's be real, we all mess up. Second, identify
(01:26):
your strengths. What are you good at, what makes you unique?
Maybe you're a creative genius, an athletic beast, or a
killer conversationalist. Whatever it is, own it. Celebrate those things
about yourself that make you well. You don't be afraid
to put yourself out there and share your talents with
the world. Third, set realistic goals. Forget about trying to
(01:47):
conquer the world overnight. Start small, set achievable goals, and
celebrate every little win along the way. You know that
feeling when you finally nail that tricky TikTok dance move,
That's what I'm talking about. It feels good right. Fourth,
surround yourself with positive people who support your dreams and
believe in you. They're your cheerleaders, your hype squad, your
(02:08):
real life avengers assembling to conquer the world, or at
least conquer that pop quiz. Ditch the negative nancies and
cultivate relationships that lift you up instead of tearing you down. Last,
but not least, practice self care. Seriously. It's not just
about bubble baths and face masks, though those are pretty dope.
Self care is about prioritizing your physical and mental well being.
(02:30):
Get enough sleep, eat healthy foods, move your body, even
if it's just a TikTok dance, break, and do things
that make you happy. You deserve to feel good inside
and out. All right, let me throw this at you.
Remember that time you were about to give up on
a project, a hobby, or even just trying a new
recipe because your inner critic was screaming fail. Yeah, well,
(02:52):
I'm calling bs on that. This is your moment to
rise above the noise and own your shit. You're capable
of amazing things, even if you don't believe it yet,
So what are you waiting for? Get out there and
crush it. The world needs your unique talents, your perspective,
and your damn awesome self. Now go forth and conquer,
and hey, if you need a pep talk, or just
(03:12):
someone to vent to hit me up on the socials.
Let's keep this digital detox real. Don't forget to follow,
rate and share this episode like it's the only thing
keeping your sanity afloat in this wild world. Peace Out.
