Great tips Carrie! And you’re right, we sometimes let fear or our own Inner Critic overwhelm us with self-sabotaging thoughts. Everyone experiences fear or doubt at some point-particularly when we are attempting things outside our comfort zone-but the key is to push through it and do what you know you need to do to succeed.
