Wrangling the Doubt Monster

Episode Summary

Everyone experiences episodes of doubt, but too often, we don't pay enough attention to what our doubts might be telling us. While self-doubt can serve as a hedge against mistakes, far too often it inhibits us from swinging for the fences. Book coach, and author Amy L. Bernstein joins Rob to talk about a word we don't use very often; doubt. While it’s perfectly reasonable to question the merits a big decision facing you may have, that questioning can often turn to self-sabotage.. How do you know if doubt is friend or foe? You listen to this show and listen to a subject matter expert on doubt!
