215: Experiments in Self-Trust

You have the deep-rooted knowledge and experience to create the career and life that you want! But first, you must filter through all the messages about what work looks like and the social and cultural nuances in academia so you can act on your self-trust.

In today's episode, I explore the importance of trusting oneself amidst the bombardment of societal and cultural expectations. I present five experiments aimed at nurturing self-trust. By engaging in these experiments, academics will cultivate a more profound sense of self-trust, recognizing its transformative power in shaping both personal and professional endeavors. So, join me on this journey of self-trust and discover the liberating potential of trusting yourself!
