The Masks We Wear (and Why You Forgot Who You Are)

Episode Description from the Publisher

At some point, you learned who you needed to be to feel safe, accepted, and loved. Over time, those adaptations shaped your identity. In this episode, we explore the psychology of the masks we wear, inspired by Carl Jung and his concept of the persona. You will learn how personality patterns form, how people pleasing and over-adapting show up in your life, and how these masks impact your relationships, leadership, and self-worth. We also break down how tools like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument can increase self-awareness, reveal behavior patterns, and help you understand your communication and conflict style. If you have ever felt disconnected from yourself or stuck in patterns you cannot explain, this episode will help you identify where those patterns come from and how to start changing them. This is your invitation to stop performing and start becoming who you truly are.
