Marisa Peer: You ARE enough
Marisa Peer has worked with thousands of people throughout her prestigious career and she credits them all for the lessons they’ve taught her along the way. These lessons, she shares, enabled her to create an incredible approach now practised across the world - Rapid Transformational Therapy®. RTT combines elements from a number of different approaches to create a kind of therapy that offers quick results and immediate support.
There is one common challenge that comes up time and again for people she works with and that is the feeling that they are not ‘enough’. This, Marisa believes, is a universal concern.
“But it's not true,” she asserts. “It's a belief. But of course, you make your beliefs and then your beliefs turn around and make you, and then you have something called confirmation bias, which means you are looking for proof of what you have chosen to believe.”
In conversation with Happiful, Marisa shares great insights around the importance of reframing our thoughts, telling ourselves a 'better lie' and the importance of connection and rejection when it comes to our sense of self.
Marisa’s advice
- Pay attention to how you talk to yourself and upgrade it. Be nice, become your own best friend
- Remember there's nothing that will build your self-esteem like praise.
- Say these four little phrases to yourself, every day.
I'm enough. I'm lovable, I matter and I'm significant.
A full interview with Marisa Peer will be in Issue 69 of Happiful, available from early December.
