In this episode of ‘Tell Your Truth’, Shamika Brown-Upshaw discusses the concept of playing small and how it is often a choice driven by fear and societal expectations. The conversation delves into the neuroscience behind our survival instincts, the importance of self-trust, and the need to define success on our own terms. Shamika encourages listeners to take bold actions and affirm their power, emphasizing that true growth comes from moving beyond fear and seeking alignment with one’s true self.
