Hello & welcome to a brilliant episode!
…one you just must share with friends.
If you're human(!), then you've probably experienced self-doubt at some point in your life as we all do. Whether it's doubting your abilities at work or play or feeling unsure doing new things - self-doubt can hold you back from achieving your dreams and goals and living a fulfilling life.
In my experience it is the biggest killer of dreams I see day to day…
But don't worry, you're not alone. In fact, my guest Louisa Jewell and I know exactly how you feel. From experience!
Louisa – who says she was plagued with self-doubt in her youth which held her back massively - is an author, speaker, and leading expert in the field of positive psychology. Her book, Wire Your Brain for Confidence; The Science of Conquering Self-Doubt, is a good read for anyone struggling with self-doubt.
