When Self-Doubt Becomes Your Toughest Opponent

💥 Did you know that over 70% of young adults admit self-doubt keeps them from going after what they want—even when they're fully capable?

In this episode, meet Kara—a 21-year-old junior gymnast at the University of New Mexico. After walking on as a freshman, she earned a scholarship by year two, dominating floor and uneven bars. But when her coach asked her to compete on the balance beam, everything changed.

Her skills were there. But her self-talk? Brutal. Every practice became a battle—not with the beam, but with the doubt in her own mind. Until a random chat at a summer farmers market led her to Jenn, a sports psychologist who helped Kara understand the one thing that flipped her season: asking for help isn’t a weakness—it’s the start of real strength.

📍 If self-doubt has ever held you back from becoming who you’re meant to be, Kara’s story is proof—you’re not alone, and you’re not stuck.
