Mate Therapy #2: Why Do I Beat Myself Up?

Stevie talks about his tendency to beat himself up in life and wonders where that comes from. It is from being a sportsman and having to take extreme accountability for performance? Is it from wanting to please people through rugby?

Topics include: Stevie dives deep and reflects on his life as a child, businesses and sportspeople being driven by shame, businesses and sports-people being driven by being enough, the relationship between intelligence and self-doubt, the 'child' in all of us and how that plays a part in our lives now.
