Feeling Stuck at Work? Build Confidence and Own Your Worth
Feeling unfulfilled at work can be frustrating, especially when you know you’re capable of more. Maybe you’re unsure what’s next, or perhaps fear, self-doubt, or imposter syndrome keep getting in the way.
You’re not alone, and you don’t have to stay stuck. This post explores why we sometimes hold back, and how RTT® hypnotherapy can help you break free from patterns that limit your confidence and self-worth at work.
You Know You’re Capable of More – So What’s Holding You Back?
Maybe you’re skilled at what you do, and people recognise it, but it doesn’t feel fulfilling.
Maybe there’s a quiet voice inside asking, “Is this it?”
Or worse, a louder one saying, “You’ll mess it up if you try something new.”
If you feel stuck or frustrated at work, you’re not alone. Many clients come to me knowing they have potential but unsure why they keep holding themselves back.
It’s Not Laziness – It’s What You’ve Been Taught to Believe
Often, the real reason we stay small isn’t external. It’s internal, shaped by beliefs we absorbed years ago:
“I’m not qualified enough to go for that role.”
“If I speak up, they’ll think I’m too much.”
“What if I fail?”
“Who do I think I am to want more?”
These thoughts often stem from conditioning, past experiences, or fear-based thinking. They can show up subtly through procrastination, overthinking, low confidence, or playing it safe.
That’s where Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT®) can make a powerful difference.
How RTT Hypnotherapy Helps You Stop Playing Small
RTT® helps uncover the subconscious roots of fear, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt. Many clients don’t even know exactly what’s holding them back; they just feel stuck. RTT® gets to the root cause.
It can help you:
Rewire limiting beliefs like “I’m not good enough” or “I don’t deserve success”
Release the fear of judgment or criticism that keeps you small
Build lasting confidence from within
Feel safe being visible and stepping into your strengths
Research shows that hypnotherapy can significantly reduce anxiety and self-doubt by updating limiting subconscious beliefs. RTT® takes this further by combining hypnotherapy with cognitive and regression tools for lasting change.
How I Help Clients Break Free and Step Into Their Potential
When we feel unfulfilled at work, there’s often a tangle of:
Fear of judgment
Anxiety about the future
Imposter syndrome or self-doubt
Overthinking or procrastination
In RTT® sessions, we uncover where these patterns came from, often early experiences, family dynamics, school pressures, or previous work environments.
Once understood, we can let go of old beliefs and replace them with supportive ones that reinforce growth, confidence, and self-worth.
You’ll also receive a personalised hypnosis recording to strengthen your new mindset daily.
A Real Story, From Playing Small to Owning Her Worth
One of my clients (read the full case study below) came to me after years of holding herself back in her long standing job.
She was talented, but afraid to make a change, to move to something better, afraid to trust herself, or believe in her ideas. In our session, we uncovered a deep belief that it wasn’t safe to stand out, shaped by childhood experiences.
Once that belief was understood and reprogrammed, she felt a huge shift.
She resigned, started a wonderful new job and started showing up with more confidence, and most importantly, felt good doing it.
She didn’t become someone new.
She just stopped hiding who she already was.
