E135: From External Validation to Internal Trust: A Leadership Journey
Manage episode 468398090 series 3481445
How often do you hesitate before making a decision, afraid of getting it wrong? How many times have you ignored your gut because someone with more “authority” seemed to know better?
For years, I believed the answers were outside of me—held by people with more experience, bigger titles, and louder voices. But the more I empowered myself, the more I realized their answers weren’t mine.
In this episode, we’re diving deep into the hidden ways we outsource our decisions, self-worth, and leadership—without even realizing it. We’ll unpack:
✔ The sneaky thoughts that keep you stuck in self-doubt and hesitation
✔ The false assumptions that hold you back from trusting yourself
✔ The fears that keep you playing small—and how to break free
If you’ve been waiting for permission, validation, or the “right” answer—this episode is your wake-up call. The answer isn’t out there. It’s in you.
Listen now and take back your power because the answer isn't out there—it’s in YOU.
