Adam explores the phrase ‘who do you think you are’ as a form of tall poppy syndrome learned in English schools, where getting ahead invites judgement. He describes a client, successful in property, who held contradictory beliefs of never amounting to anything alongside guilt about wanting more, based on the false premise that having more makes someone better. The session reframes worth as coming from choices and values rather than money or status, uses metaphors of a goldfish outgrowing its bowl and a landowner refusing to farm fertile land, and argues that holding back is the truly selfish act. It closes by inviting listeners to reclaim the question ‘who do you think you are’ as an empowering, curious one rather than a suppressive weapon.
In this session:
- Reowning ‘who do you think you are’ as an empowering question
- Tall poppy syndrome reframed as unconscious protective strategy
- Resources as optionality, not proof of superiority
- Holding back as the truly selfish act
