Episode 22: Stop Playing Small: Why Your Environment Is Either Growing You or Keeping You Stuck

Fresh off a life-changing four-day retreat in Arizona, Sarah gets brutally honest about what happens when you stop comparing yourself to others and start letting their success inspire you instead. This isn't your typical "mindset" episode - it's a raw conversation about glass ceilings we create for ourselves, the scarcity mindset plaguing our field, and why the resistance you're feeling about growth is exactly the sign you need to lean in. If you've been playing small because it feels safer, this episode is your permission slip to want more.

In This Episode Sarah Discusses...

Why feeling like you don't belong in the room means you're in exactly the right room
The shift from "I'm not doing enough" comparison to "if they can do it, so can I" inspiration
How giving yourself permission to want more isn't selfish - it's your responsibility
Why resistance to growth is often a sign you need to do the thing that scares you
The toxic scarcity mindset in ABA: why other BCBAs' success doesn't threaten yours
