We’ve all heard the story: men rise faster because they’re confident. Women hold back because of self-doubt. But what if that narrative is completely backwards?

Self-doubt isn’t a weakness. It’s a gateway—a spark that fuels inquiry, creativity, and innovation. Every breakthrough, every lasting solution, every legacy worth remembering began with someone willing to question the way things had always been done.

Here’s the truth no one talks about: confidence alone can push you forward, but women leaders bring something more. The courage to question. The willingness to sit in the unknown. The vision to ask, “What if there’s a better way?” That spark—your self-doubt—is the superpower that will ripple forward, shaping leadership for generations to come.

This is why I created the Women’s Legacy Movement. Because our influence matters. Our well-being matters. Our leadership isn’t just about climbing a career ladder—it’s about building a legacy of women leaders, sustainable impact, and systems that will outlast us.

Here, we reject the myths that leadership must come at the cost of yourself. We reject the idea that exhaustion and masking are the price of success. Instead, we rise, we rest, and we lead—with presence, clarity, and joy.

The Women’s Legacy Movement podcast is your space to explore research-backed strategies, visionary insights, and real-world stories from women leading with influence and purpose. It’s where women ready to reclaim their energy, step into their full presence, and leave a legacy beyond themselves find each other.

I’m Carole Jean Whittington, founder of the Women’s Legacy Movement and Chief Well-Being Officer of Whittington Well-Being. I help women leaders—and the professionals who support them—step into sustainable energy, joy, and legacy. As the creator of The UnVeiling Method and author of Unleashing Sustainable Energy and Living Unmasked, I combine research, lived experience, science and a dash of Human Design to guide women into their most aligned, authentic selves—proving that well-being isn’t a luxury, it’s the foundation of leadership and lasting influence.
