Have you ever felt like you’re stuck in self-doubt, waiting for the perfect moment to take action? In this episode, I sit down with Emily Mathis to talk about how self-doubt can creep into your decision-making, fuel procrastination, and keep you from moving forward. Whether you’re launching a business, starting a new project, or simply trying to put yourself out there, this conversation is full of real talk and reminders that you don’t have to stay stuck.
We unpack the connection between procrastination and perfectionism, how to create momentum with small, aligned actions, and why accountability can be the game-changer you need. Emily and I also share our own experiences with doubt—and how reconnecting with your deeper “why” can be the thing that moves you from hesitation into action.
