105. Do you TRUST yourself to show up for YOU?

There have been a lot of changes I wanted to make in my life, but I didn't trust myself to follow through and do them. So I stopped setting goals and making promises to myself.  This is something I have bee through and coach many women on - the issue of not trusting yourself creates a situation where you don't believe you CAN do it, you stop looking for ways to learn, you look to others for the solution and validation and you spin where you are - in indecisiveness, anxiety and maybe apathy.      Showing up for others but not ourselves Often this situation shows up in women who still 'get things done' - but they are doing things FOR other people, whether held by accountability or expectation or role. But they don't 'get things done' for THEMSELVES, they don't show up for themselves and do what they said they would do.  Can you relate to the situation of not trusting yourself? * We might have an idea of what we want, but we waver on it, we doubt it.  * We might try something new,  but we are insecure about it the whole time, we half show up. * We might want to address an issue but we shrink away from it * We might want to make a big change, but don’t believe it is possible * We aren’t sure we are capable, that we know enough, that we are strong enough * We don’t trust ourselves to do the thing we set out to do   What do you use as evidence that you can't trust yourself? * how you have failed * you did it wrong * you didn't feel confident or motivated enough * you've never done it before * other people do it better/easier/faster   I used to not trust myself, and I'm sharing that in this episode: * How I went through most of my adult life, not trusting muself. In fact, angry at who I was and what I wasn't doing with my life.  * The promises I made to myself that I would break * How I am learning to become someone I can trust with my life   What happens when you trust yourself? What happens when you FOLLOW THROUGH on what you say you want to do? I feel like I have been experiencing this over the past few years. I have taken back my power. I feel in control of my life. It feels possible to me that I can really do whatever I WANT to do in my life.  ACTION:  I'm giving you a couple of simple questions to get yourself started with building back the trust in yourself.    More resources mentioned in this episode: My C-Section and the Feelings I was Ashamed to Admit Mom No Matter What The Annual Simple on Purpose Survey The Life on Purpose ROADMAP COURSE Book a consult call to learn about 1:1 coaching with Shawna Let's be Instagram friends Bring your questions to the closed Facebook Group     FULL TRANSCRIPT Hey,
