Episode 33 - How to Handle Criticism: Understanding Projection and Rising Above Negativity

Ever had someone criticize you out of nowhere? Maybe they doubted your dreams, belittled your success, or tried to make you feel like you weren’t good enough. The truth is—it’s not about you. It’s about them.

People project their own fears, insecurities, and self-doubt onto others. When they see you growing, chasing your dreams, or succeeding, it forces them to confront their own limitations. Instead of facing their fears, they throw them at you. Understanding projection is key to handling criticism and rising above negativity.

In this empowering episode, we’ll cover:

• Why people project their insecurities and how to recognize it.
• How to stop taking criticism personally and stay grounded in your truth.
• The importance of setting boundaries to protect your energy.
• How to keep moving forward despite negativity and self-doubt.

Not everyone will understand your journey, and that’s okay. Your path is yours alone. The more you grow, the more resistance you might face—but that’s proof that you’re evolving. Keep pushing forward. Let them project, let them doubt, let them judge—then go prove them wrong.

Let’s dive into how you can build resilience, protect your mindset, and stay focused on your goals. If you’re ready to rise above negativity and step into your true potential, this video is for you!
