For almost 20 years Penni Zelinkoff (aka "PenniZ") focused on rehabbing real estate, but after a divorce and a cross-country move, she realized she needed to rehab her life. PenniZ visited the Kickin’ it with Daree show to share how the weight of feeling that she was not _____ enough as she was (imposter syndrome) stemmed from an event that happened when she was 6 years old.

How do you feel when you think about your: Past mistakes Failed business ventures Grief Relationships and friendships that ended There are so many situations, whether it be meetings at work, holidays with family, and others where you can be tempted to "read into" a situation or what someone else is saying. Or you can think about things that have happened in your life and boil them down to a negative reason why things happened the way they did. I'll give you a personal example that I've never shared before to illustrate how I overcame this. The meaning of anything you say, hear or experience is the meaning you give it. I hope you can apply this quick episode to your own life.
