Do you feel like there's more inside you, but something keeps holding you back? Do you dream of a different life, but some invisible wall stops you? You're not alone.
In You Are a Badass, Jen Sincero blends raw honesty with humor and grounded spirituality to help you rediscover your inner power. This blog shows you how – yes, you – can build confidence, ditch your excuses, and start dreaming big again.
No fluff. Just results.

💡 The Biggest Saboteur? (Spoiler: It's You)
The biggest reason your dreams feel out of reach? You.Or more specifically: the voice in your head telling you that you can’t, that you’re not meant for it, that it’s too late.
“Who do you think you are?”“You tried before and failed.”“What will people think?”
That voice isn’t truth – it’s just a broken record of old beliefs. Jen Sincero challenges you to call out that BS and replace it with something stronger.
📌 Exercise: Write down 3 limiting thoughts you often hear. Challenge them: Are they true? Where did they come from? What would a loving mentor say instead?
🧠 Mindset as Fuel: How Your Thinking Shapes Your Reality
Our thoughts create habits. Habits shape identity.If you constantly think you’re not good enough, your behavior will follow suit. But here’s the good news: you can change the script.
Reprogram your beliefs:
“I’m still learning” instead of “I’m bad at this.”
“I am worthy” instead of “I have to prove myself.”
“I’m ready for abundance” instead of “Money is always a struggle.”
📌 Exercise: Every morning and evening, write down one powerful affirmation you want to embody. Feel it. Speak it. Repeat until it becomes your new truth.
🎯 Stop Waiting – Start Doing!
Waiting for motivation is like waiting for perfect weather to go jogging.Sincero cuts through excuses: it’s action that creates movement – even in your mind.
Start with just 5 minutes
Do it imperfectly
Stay accountable (share your goal with someone)
Reward even the tiniest step
📌 Exercise: What’s one small action you can take today to move closer to your dream? Send an email? Submit a form? Write one page? Set a timer. Begin.
💰 Money & Mindset: What’s Your Inner Script?
To Sincero, money isn’t taboo or shameful – it’s energy. And how you think about it affects how much you allow into your life.
“I deserve abundance” instead of “I have to work myself into the ground.”
“Money flows to me” instead of “There’s never enough.”
📌 Exercise: Listen to how you talk about money. If money were a person, would it want to be around you based on the way you treat it? 😅
💖 Self-Love & Boundaries: You Don’t Have to Be Perfect First
You don’t need to be thinner, more successful, or more zen before you’re allowed to love yourself. You are already enough – right now. Self-love isn’t selfish. It’s the foundation for everything.
Say no without guilt
Stop comparing yourself
Compliment yourself – out loud
Be kind to yourself when you mess up: growth isn’t a straight line
📌 Exercise: Look yourself in the mirror for 30 seconds and say: “I’m proud of you.” Notice how it feels. Repeat daily for one week.
💭 Dare to Dream Big – Even if It Feels Scary
Many people sabotage their dreams before they even start.Why? Because they think their dream is “too big.”But according to Sincero, that’s the whole point:If it doesn’t scare you a little, it’s not big enough.
Let yourself fantasize
Visualize your ideal life in vivid detail
Use imagination as a mental training ground
Surround yourself with people who support your dreams
📌 Exercise: Write a letter from your future self – the one already living your dream life. What do you see? What do you feel? What do you want to say to your present self?
😎 From Badass to Action: Activate Your Inner Power
You are a badass – even if you don’t fully believe it yet. By taking daily action, using affirmations, training your mind, and following your heart, you’ll not only build confidence – you’ll build momentum.
Small actions = massive impact
Repeat new beliefs until they become second nature
Rest when needed, but don’t quit
Don’t be afraid to ask for help
📌 Exercise: Pick one ‘badass act’ for this week – something outside your comfort zone. Do it. Reflect on it. Celebrate it.
You Don’t Need Permission to Live Big
Jen Sincero says it loud and clear: Stop playing small. Life doesn’t wait. You’re allowed to choose you – now. Everything you’re looking for – strength, peace, freedom – already lives inside you. All you need to do is activate it.
