In this episode, I share my transformative journey of creating and growing multiple businesses and income streams while embracing the idea of "Doubt Yourself Do It Anyway™." From battling imposter syndrome to hosting international summits, creating multiple podcasts, writing a book, and more, my entrepreneurial path has been filled with twists and turns.

Here are three key takeaways:

1. Embrace the Unknown: Taking risks, despite the feelings of uncertainty, allows us to grow, learn, and prepare for even bigger leaps in the future. Use these decisions to help build confidence and experience.
2. Acknowledge and Navigate Self-Doubt: Perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt are normal and often persistent. Instead of letting them hold you back, acknowledge their presence, find your purpose, and keep moving forward.
3. Celebrate Small Wins and Plan for the Future: Reflect on past accomplishments to fuel future ambitions. Planning and adjusting your goals based on what energizes you and honors your sensory needs can lead to sustained success with less burnout.

If you're navigating your own entrepreneurial journey, I encourage you to consider the resources and experiences that I and other experts in the mental health entrepreneurial space have created for individuals like you.
