Welcome back to The Anxiety Recovery Podcast 💫
This week, we’re diving into a topic that even the most “healed” and high-achieving among us still struggle with — self-doubt.
That quiet but powerful voice that whispers, “Who am I to do this?”
That moment before you take a leap where your chest tightens, your heart races, and your mind floods with every reason you might fail.
And even after all the therapy, healing, and inner-child work — self-doubt can still find its way in.
Joining me is Raquel DaRowe, an incredible Rapid Transformational Therapist (RTT) and subconscious-mind expert who helps people break free from the limiting beliefs that keep them stuck in fear and self-sabotage. Raquel blends deep subconscious reprogramming with emotional healing to help clients quiet the inner critic and rebuild unshakable self-trust.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ Where self-doubt really comes from (hint: it’s not laziness or lack of confidence)
✨ Why we often fear our own potential more than failure
✨ The difference between anxiety and fear — and how to tell which one is driving you
✨ How to move from “I’m not enough” to embodied self-trust
And we get real about questions like:
💭 What did self-doubt used to sound like in your head?
💭 Why does self-doubt hit hardest after we start to step into something bigger — instead of before?
💭 What’s the difference between anxiety and fear?
💭 Can you remember a moment when self-doubt almost won — when that inner voice told you you weren’t enough, but you chose to move anyway?
💭 What do you wish people understood about how exhausting it is to constantly feel like you’re not “ready” or “qualified”?
💭 What helped you start believing in yourself when your mind had no evidence yet — when you had to borrow faith before results?
💭 How can someone begin to build self-trust again if they’ve broken it with themselves over and over?
💭 And if you could whisper one sentence to every listener trapped in self-doubt right now — what would you want them to hear?
If you’ve ever achieved something big but still felt like it wasn’t enough, this episode will help you understand why — and how to rewrite that story from the inside out.
Tune in, take a deep breath, and let’s explore the psychology of self-doubt together. 💛
