Episode Notes: ✨ Waitlist for 2027 Immersions You’ve done the work to trust yourself… so why is doubt still showing up? In this solo episode, Emily explores three distinct flavors of doubt—and why each one needs to be tended to differently. Emily talks about: →why building Self-Trust doesn’t mean doubt disappears →the Doubt of Expansion and why doubt can actually get louder as your life gets bigger →why entering new arenas brings more visibility, vulnerability, uncertainty, and more at stake →the Doubt of Depletion and what happens when you’re too under-resourced to hear yourself clearly →how early motherhood and sleep deprivation challenged Emily’s own relationship with Self-Trust →why sometimes trusting yourself means recognizing that you can’t hear yourself clearly right now →when to wait, restore your capacity, or borrow wisdom from people you trust →the Doubt of the Threshold and why doubt naturally appears between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming →why you don’t yet have evidence that you can be this new woman—because you’ve never been her before →how ritual, reverence, support, and witnessing can help us cross life’s biggest thresholds →how each flavor of doubt maps onto The Self-Trust Compass →the tangible question to ask when doubt arrives: What kind of doubt is this—and what does it need from me? Emily also shares more about her own Maiden Voyage before becoming a mother, why she’s increasingly drawn toward supporting women at the thresholds of their lives, and the inspiration behind her MotherMoon retreats. The goal isn’t to become someone who never doubts herself. It’s to become someone who knows how to stay with herself when doubt arrives.
