What doubts are circling in your mind today? What doubts do you constantly carry with you? If you're like me, there are always doubts but how much weight or voice do we give them? Don't let this happen to you! 

When I first decided to run for elected office, if I had listened to my doubts, given into them, I wouldn't have run. There were so many reasons, fears, doubts in my mind as to what could go wrong or what wouldn't work out. I had limiting beliefs that I wasn't experienced enough, old enough, smart enough... I could have let that all limit my tomorrow. I didn't though because the reasons I wanted to run, to make a difference, to give a voice to working families and women, were bigger than my doubts. 

Drill into what doubts are holding you back from your next move, your tomorrow. What can you do today to overcome them? Scroll to the bottom and click on the podcast episode I share this week for some insight and help in getting over the doubts. 

If there's something I have learned in my time as an elected official, it's that the only actions I can control are my own. Seems obvious, but how many times have I been frustrated that someone didn't act in the way I wished them to?! Many times. What I have realized is that I can model the behavior I wish to see. I can lead the way I want to. Little by little, bit by bit, others start to reflect that leadership back in their own actions.
