âïžâđ„ Broken Promises = đBroken Progress on the CPA Exam
Episode Summary:
If youâve ever said âIâll study tonightâ and then didnâtâthis episode is for you. Most CPA Exam candidates assume the struggle is about time, material, or motivation. But what quietly stalls progress is the erosion of self-trustâthe subtle doubt that builds each time you donât follow through on a promise to yourself.
In this episode, Dawn explains why self-trustânot pressure or guiltâis the steady force that turns intentions into action. Youâll learn how small, repeatable commitments compound into confidence, shift your identity into someone who follows through, and carry you to the CPA Exam finish line.

â Why lack of self-trustânot lack of timeâkeeps candidates stuck
â How small, consistent promises build your âself-trust muscleâ

â Why self-trust spills over into work, relationships, and well-being
â How the STAR Study Framework supports reliable follow-through (Schedule, Track, Assess, Reward)

Truth Check + Reflection Prompt:
Mentioned in This Episode:
Final Takeaway:
You donât need more pressure to move forwardâyou need self-trust. Keep one small promise today. Repeat it tomorrow. That steady follow-through is what carries you all the way to your CPA Exam Success.
