The Self-Worth Series: How to Silence Self-Doubt

04/07/25 • 51 min

1 Listener

What if the only thing standing between you and the life you want... is the belief that you’re not enough?

In this powerful opening to The Self-Worth Series, we’re dismantling the lies self-doubt tells us—and replacing them with truth.

Our special guest, Dawn Petgrave Smith, a licensed clinical psychologist, joins us to explore:
🔹 Why self-doubt shows up for both men and women in different ways
🔹 How childhood, culture, and comparison fuel feelings of unworthiness
🔹 Tangible mindset shifts to silence your inner critic
🔹 How to rebuild confidence after years of self-doubt
🔹 And why your worth has never been up for debate

Whether you’ve been playing small, second-guessing your decisions, or waiting for permission to feel worthy—this conversation is your wake-up call.

💡 You are enough. Right now. As you are.

✅ Self-Worth Challenge: Reframe one negative belief about yourself into something empowering. Say it out loud. Write it down. Start there.

Why does saying “no” feel like you’re doing something wrong—even when you know it’s what’s best for you?

If you've ever said yes just to avoid disappointing someone—or felt guilty for setting boundaries—this episode is your reminder that self-worth starts with self-respect.

In this powerful conversation, psychologist Dawn Petgrave Smith returns to help us understand:

Why do so many people struggle to say "no" without guilt?
How does setting boundaries strengthen self-worth?
What should someone do if people push back against their boundaries... and much more.

Whether you’re a parent, partner, employee, or leader—your peace matters too.
And guess what? Saying no doesn’t make you less kind. It makes you more honest.

✅ Self-Worth Challenge: This week, say no to one thing that drains your energy, and yes to something that nourishes you. No guilt. No apology.
