114 - How to Quiet Self-Doubt and Reconnect with your Inner Knowing


Listen Later

Your inner compass is ready to guide you… Are you listening?


Many of us have buried our inner knowing under years of doubt, overthinking, and second-guessing. In this episode, host Elizabeth Mintun talks about how to reconnect with that inner voice, cultivate self-trust, and act with alignment even when the mind is loud and life feels uncertain.


Elizabeth shares a personal story of a time she faced a challenging decision and discovered how listening to her body, rather than just her mind, helped her find clarity. She also dives into common barriers to self-trust, the lessons hidden in fear, and an inspiring story from the Pancha Tantra - The Lion and the Rabbit - that illustrates the power of awareness, discernment, and courage.


Key Takeaways:


  • Doubt and fear are normal: Acting from alignment doesn’t require certainty; it requires courage to honor your inner compass despite the uncertainty.
  • Common barriers to self-trust:
  • Overthinking and perfectionism
  • Fear of regret or being wrong
  • Seeking external validation
  • Past experiences or unresolved emotions
  • Self-trust is a practice: Like a muscle, it grows with consistent, small actions. Over time, it becomes a steady, quiet confidence ready to guide you in life’s twists and turns.
