SELF-SABOTAGE: Why Do We Do It?

  • Pizzeria Serio 1708 West Belmont Avenue Chicago, IL, 60657 United States (map)

****ABOUT WOMEN is normally on the 3rd Wednesday of the month. Due to the 3rd Wednesday being so close to the holidays in Nov/Dec, it has been switched to the 2nd Wednesday for the Nov/Dec events.****

Is there something you are doing that is sabotaging you? Unhealthy habit? Negative self-talk? When we self-sabotage, it's like we don't believe that we deserve awesomeness. Or maybe that we deserve the negativity. Or sometimes it's the Impostor Syndrome where we think, "Who am I? There is someone that is better or smarter or more qualified, etc. so why even try." We close that door before we even attempt to see what's behind it.  We think about 25 steps ahead instead of dealing with right now. We can't think about Step 25 if we haven't dealt with Step 1. 

Let's talk about this. Let's figure this out together. Please join the judgment-free convHERsation. We will also hear from 4 different women as they share their personal story on this topic. All women that speak are regular, everyday women.

SpeakHERs:

This is a judgment-free convHERsation. There will also be a Q&A portion of the evening. And if you want to just listen, that is ok too.

This is a safe space to hear different sides of the story.

What else happens at the ABOUT WOMEN events?

These events are unique. It's kind of like a support group for being a woman. It's a place to not feel alone. It's also a networking event in disguise. I say "in disguise" because it's not like other networking events where the first thing you talk about is your job. We talk about being human beings and our struggles and our awesomeness and then sometimes our jobs are talked about. It's a place to connect. To find other women that get it. We laugh. Sometimes we even cry. And that's ok. Because this is a safe space. Questions are asked to the audience and we have a group convHERsation. Sometimes the women in the audience ask questions too. Of course, you don't have to answer if you don't want. No one will ever make you speak. It's casual. It's comfortable. It's motivational.
