Do You Ever Doubt Yourself?

I’m on a plane on the way home from a conference. This week, I heard the same message over and over again “You are so confident … people are drawn to you”.   The truth is that I don’t always feel confident. I experience self-doubt daily. Sometimes the “not good enough” voice is so loud […]
