Episode Description from the Publisher

Most people don't recognise victim mindset in themselves because it doesn't look dramatic. It looks like a property developer with a very good reason why now isn't the time. It looks like an exhausted professional who's been describing the same hard situation for months. It looks like someone who has the receipts, the timeline, and the context, and no plan. In this episode of Bounce Back Better, Hilary Saxton breaks down what victim mindset actually is, why smart and capable people stay in it, and what it costs the people around you, your kids, your team, your culture. Most importantly, she gives you the one question that shifts everything: not "why me?" but "what is still mine to do?" What you'll learn: Why victim mindset looks normal and how to spot it in yourself The hidden payoff that keeps capable people stuck How your mindset pattern flows to the people around you The one question that pulls you out of the story and back into action How to apply this immediately in property, business, or at home Timestamped highlights: 01.14 The Dinner Party Revelation 02:53 Understanding Victim Mindset 06:09 The Impact of Victim Mindset on Relationships 08:54 Shifting from Victim to Growth Mindset 11:48 Taking Ownership and Action 15:11 The Power of Asking the Right Questions www.hilarysaxton.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
