Is Victim Mentality Keeping You Stuck?
What!? I don't act like a victim!
It's another one of those episodes where I'm gonna say all the stuff that no one else will 😂
I'm gonna call you out on the BS, with LOVE. Here's the truth; we've all had victim mentality in some way in some situation in our life. Usually it's in small ways that you might not have recognized as victim mentality.
Here's some examples:
- You told your boss that you didn't get the report to her on time because Karen didn't do HER part on time.
- You've said something like "you make me SO angry" (hint: no one can MAKE you feel any certain way)
- You've decided something like "I'm this way because of you"
- You can't let someone else's crappy behavior go and you keep stewing on it for way too long.
- Something bad happened to you and you've decided you'll just always be "broken"
- You're always "waiting for the other shoe to drop"
- If you get fired it's "because my boss is a total b&!*h"
- Something goes wrong and you just give up "what's the use in trying?"
See? It comes out in little ways that we don't always recognize as victim mentality. The problem is we get totally stuck here. We get totally frozen in our victimhood instead of taking responsibility for figuring out how to move forward.
I also want to be really clear that I understand that trauma is real, being an ACTUAL victim of something awful is real, having to deal with terrible situations and terrible people is REAL. But you still have the choice of whether to let that situation define you and keep you stuck in victimhood, or if you'll do the work to move forward.
Today, I'm going there. You might feel a bit triggered, you might not like the feeling of recognizing some of these things in yourself, but if you want to get unstuck, you need to hear them.

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food
If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change. Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.
If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.
That’s why I created the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting transformation in your Mind AND Body.
