Shownotes

In today’s episode, I am talking about how to learn to trust yourself. It’s a big topic and it’s an important one. What I am noticing is that for a lot of my clients, there is a huge amount of pushing, on their part, to come up with the "right" answer about what should come next for their career. 

Often we lose that ability to trust in ourselves. Maybe we have made a mistake or a project or piece of work hasn’t gone as well as we wanted it to. Maybe we’ve made a career move in the past that hasn’t turned out how we wanted it and we are feeling bruised and battered and struggling to trust that we will make the right decisions about our own future. Sometimes we might lose that trust because other people have called it into question. Perhaps other people have criticised us and that causes us to question whether or not we are doing the right thing.

In this episode, I share some thoughts and advice about trusting that:

  • You will come up with the "right answer"
  • You will be brave enough to take the action needed to help bring your career vision to life
  • You do know what is right for you.
