Conquering Self-Doubt: Navigating New Challenges with Confidence

Monday Sep 09, 2024
Hey friends! Welcome to another mini-sode of Adulting with Autism. I'm April Ratchford, your friendly occupational therapist mom, proudly on the spectrum and raising an amazing young adult son with autism. Today, we're diving into the tricky waters of self-doubt.
Ever had one of those weeks where nothing seems to go right? I sure did! Between work overload and podcast glitches, I found myself questioning everything. But guess what? Self-doubt is just your brain's way of trying to keep you safe from new and challenging things. Let's break it down together and see how we can train our brains to embrace change.
I'll also share an inspiring story from Jimmy Clare, the host of The Crazy Fitness Guy podcast, who reminded me of the power of knowing your 'why.' This episode is a heartfelt reminder that growth comes with challenges, and every stumble is just a step towards learning and success.
So grab your drink of choice, no judgment here, and let's tackle self-doubt head-on. Remember, there's no such thing as failure—only lessons and growth. Keep being your amazing self, and let's keep adulting together!
