Ever set a goal and thought, Can I actually do this? You plan, you prepare, but somewhere between the excitement and execution, that quiet self-doubt sneaks in. In this episode, I break down what self-efficacy really is—your belief in your ability to make things happen—and why so many high-achieving women struggle with it.
I share with you the four biggest blocks to self-efficacy (from perfectionism to compassion fatigue) and why rebuilding belief in yourself isn’t about working harder, it’s about working with more self-trust. You’ll also learn how something as simple as a goal planner can retrain your brain to expect small wins, track real progress, and recover from setbacks faster.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or second-guessing yourself, this one’s your reminder: confidence comes from action. Your planner isn’t just a productivity tool. It’s proof of your power.
