143: Challenging Assumptions

Uncommon Couch

What are some assumptions you have about your life and the world around you? Have you ever stopped to think about whether or not those assumptions are true? It could be a personal or a professional belief, but either way, have you taken the time to really examine why you believe it? I’d love to invite you to do so and begin challenging long-held assumptions.

In this episode of Uncommon Couch, I’m asking you 5 questions that I want you to ask yourself about the assumptions you hold in your life. Sometimes what we think is true really isn’t true once we stop to investigate it and do our due diligence. I want you to really dig deep and question, among other things, what you believe, why you believe it, and who benefits from you believing it? I really think you’ll be surprised by some of the conclusions you come to.

What you’ll find in this episode:

[02:29] What did you learn in your professional training that you now know is bullsh*t?

[08:02] Who benefits from your assumptions?

[09:58] How did you land on your beliefs and have you done your due diligence?

[13:30] How do you judge truth?

[15:06] Why does it feel dangerous to let go of this assumption?
