#1 - When Self-Doubt Takes Over, Trust Your Wings
Sometimes I make a decision and only afterwards the doubt shows up. I start questioning myself, my timing, my capability, and whether I was ever ready at all.
In this short reflection, I share a simple image that stayed with me and what it revealed to me about self-doubt, self-trust, and where I place my confidence.
A bird sitting in a tree isn’t afraid of a branch breaking, because its trust isn’t in the branch, but in its wings.
As I sat with that image, I realised how closely it mirrors the way I deal with self-doubt.
When I struggle with self-doubt, imposter feelings, or second-guessing choices I’ve already made, I’m often trusting the branch. The branch is everything outside of me: other people’s opinions, outcomes I can’t control, validation, comparison, and social media.
And when my trust sits there, self-doubt makes sense.
In this episode, I explore what happens when trust lives outside of us and what shifts when I bring it back to myself, not by pretending nothing will go wrong, but by trusting my ability to respond when it does.
In this episode, I explore:
- Why self-doubt makes sense when trust lives outside of us
- The difference between trusting outcomes and trusting my ability to respond
- Why self-trust isn’t about certainty or confidence
- Why falling doesn’t mean failing
- What it means to choose again, even with doubt present
This isn’t about pushing fear away or forcing confidence. It’s about remembering that even if the branch breaks, I still have wings.
A reflection to sit with:
Where have I been trusting the branch instead of trusting my ability to respond?
If this episode landed for you and it made you think of someone who might need it right now, feel free to share it.
Thank you for being here. I wish you courage and trust in your wings.
