Healing the Fear of Being Seen: Inner Child Work & Tall Poppy Syndrome

  • Summary

  • Have you ever felt like the moment you start thriving—people start acting differently? Maybe they pull away, make passive-aggressive comments, or subtly downplay your success. If you’ve ever felt the urge to shrink yourself, tone things down, or make yourself smaller just to avoid discomfort—this episode is for you.

    This is called Tall Poppy Syndrome, and it’s deeply tied to childhood conditioning, self-worth wounds, and the fear of being fully seen.

    In this episode, we’re diving into:
    ✔️ What Tall Poppy Syndrome is & why people react negatively to your success
    ✔️ How it’s connected to subconscious beliefs & inner child wounds
    ✔️ Signs you’re shrinking yourself without realizing it
    ✔️ Why success might feel unsafe (and how to rewire that)
    ✔️ How to break the cycle, reclaim your confidence, and RISE into your full potential

    🔥 If you’ve been dimming your light out of fear of judgment, it’s time to break free. This is your permission to stop playing small and step fully into your power.
