The Real Reason You Keep Doubting Yourself (and How to Shift It)
“Ever catch yourself thinking, ‘Who am I to even try?’ Yeah, me too—more times than I want to admit.”
Let’s have a real conversation, Sacred Star Being.
Self-doubt isn’t just something “other people” struggle with. It shows up for all of us—even the women who look the most confident from the outside.
And yes, it still shows up for me.
There was a moment not too long ago, after I had already manifested my home, my new car, even launched my coaching programs… and guess what? Doubt still slid in like, “Felicia, what if this all falls apart? What if you’re not as ‘together’ as you think you are?”
Sometimes it creeps in quietly:
Second-guessing your decisions
Overthinking your next step
Holding back your real voice because “What will they think?”
Procrastinating on what you KNOW you’re called to do
If this is you, I see you.
I coach women every week who tell me, “I thought I’d be past this by now.” But here’s the truth—self-doubt isn’t a sign you’re broken. It’s a sign you’re growing.
Why does it linger?
Most of us learned early on to question ourselves—maybe from a parent, a teacher, or just life’s hard knocks. For some of us, it’s survival mode. For others, it’s “good girl” conditioning or the trauma of being told we’re “too much” or “not enough.”
Doubt is just the old programming trying to keep you safe.
But safe doesn’t equal satisfied, and it definitely doesn’t equal aligned.
Here’s how I shift it (in real life):
I don’t battle my self-doubt anymore. I name it, I love on it, and then I gently remind myself:
My worth is not up for debate. My dreams are valid, even on the days I don’t feel “ready.”
When that inner critic gets loud, I put my hand over my heart and say,
“Thank you for trying to protect me, but we’re safe now. We’re allowed to move forward.”
Sometimes I’ll journal it out. Sometimes I look in the mirror and speak the truth out loud. And yes—sometimes I text my own coach for a reminder!
Quick Practice:
Next time your doubt flares up, pause.
Ask yourself:
“What if this feeling is just an old story? What would I do right now if I trusted I was already enough?”
Write it down. Take the smallest step. Celebrate that you chose YOU.
