Self-trust is one of those things that we often don’t think about, but it plays a huge role in both our personal and business lives. In this episode of the Mindset & Action Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dawn Ledet, a self-trust coach who helps entrepreneurs master the one thing that impacts everything—trusting themselves. Dawn shared her own journey of struggling with self-trust, which led her to take drastic action, like selling her car to force herself into a routine. But what she learned along the way was far more valuable: self-trust isn’t about being fearless; it’s about knowing you have your own back no matter what.

We delved into the topic of self-sabotage and how it ties into our self-trust, particularly in business. So many of us set goals at the start of the year, only to find ourselves feeling like we’ve already fallen behind. It’s easy to label ourselves as self-sabotaging, but Dawn has a different take. Instead of seeing it as sabotage, she encourages us to recognise that every action—or inaction—is a choice. And when we own our choices, we can decide to make different ones without the heavy weight of judgement holding us back. )

One of the biggest takeaways from our conversation was about the impact of self-talk. We all have that inner voice, but the way it speaks to us matters. Dawn explained how we often absorb external criticism and turn it into internal dialogue, which can shape how we see ourselves and our potential. The good news? We have the power to change it. By shifting the tone of our inner dialogue—replacing judgement with curiosity—we can start to rewrite the scripts that have been holding us back for years.

Another fascinating topic we covered was the idea of taking a consumption fast. In a world where we are constantly bombarded with information, Dawn took a step back from podcasts, books, and TV for what was meant to be three months but turned into three years! This break allowed her to reconnect with her own voice and wisdom, rather than being swayed by the endless stream of external opinions. While we may not all need to go to that extreme, it’s a great reminder to create space for our own thoughts and intuition.

For those who struggle with self-trust, Dawn shared a simple but powerful framework: making decisions, following through, and having your own back. These three elements are essential for achieving any goal. And if you’re looking for practical steps to build your self-trust, Dawn has a free seven-day Self-Trust Boost series that offers quick and easy ways to start strengthening your confidence in yourself.

This conversation was such an eye-opener, and I know it will resonate with so many of you. Whether it’s imposter syndrome creeping in, struggling to follow through on goals, or just the way we speak to ourselves, self-trust is at the core of it all. If you want to dive deeper into this topic, be sure to check out the full episode and connect with Dawn—you won’t regret it!
