Episode 97 ✨ Which Comes First: Belief or Action? Two Musts for Better Results

In this week’s episode of Trusting Dorothy, we’re diving into the two must-have ingredients for lasting results, whether in health, fitness, business, or life. Results don’t come from doing more; they come from a powerful blend of belief and compliance (consistent action).

But here’s the real question: Which comes first? Do you need to believe in yourself before you can stay consistent, or does consistency itself build belief?

In this episode, Dorothy unpacks:

Why external validation keeps belief fragile

How to shift from hope → deep self-trust

The role of compliance (and why “noncompliance” is often disbelief, not laziness)

Subconscious reasons we avoid consistency, and how to face them safely

How belief and action fuel each other to create momentum

Whether you’re on a health journey, building a business, or simply trying to follow through on something important, this episode will help you strengthen the foundation that makes all results possible.
