Episode 43: I Believe in You (Even When You Don’t): Navigating Self-Doubt, Rest, and New Beginnings
In this episode, I share a raw and honest reflection on self-doubt, rest, and what it really feels like to start something new before you feel ready. Recorded from my car after a week of illness and missed plans, this conversation is for anyone who feels like everything falls apart the moment they slow down. I talk about the vulnerability of being new, the emotional spiral that can happen when we don’t meet our own expectations, and why rest isn’t failure — it’s human. From sitting with doubt on the beach to questioning whether the dream is still worth pursuing, this episode explores how to keep going even when belief feels fragile. I share why curiosity is more powerful than self-criticism, how to notice the voice of doubt without letting it run the show, and why the calling inside you doesn’t disappear just because things get messy. Through stories of rejection, rest, belief, and trust, this episode is a reminder that you don’t need full confidence to move forward — you just need to keep listening to what’s calling you. If you’re starting a new project, navigating self-doubt, recovering from burnout, or wondering whether you’re cut out for the thing you desire most, this episode is for you. 💬 In this episode, we explore: Self-doubt when starting something new Why rest can trigger fear and second-guessing Letting go of perfection and timelines Trusting the inner calling that won’t go away Belief, curiosity, and moving forward anyway You might not believe in yourself today — but I believe in you.
