I have come to learn for myself that the opposite of faith is not doubt, but rather the opposite of faith is certainty! Having doubt is to be fundamentally human & asking questions is the first step to finding answers and clarity. Let’s shed the shadow of shame cast on doubt and instead seek and find clarity that only comes with asking questions.

episode 20: Episode 20: Self-doubt with Jennie Lakenan
We all have questions and doubts, even Jennie the web designer. If you find yourself thinking “she must be booked out,” take note she is human like the rest of us! Things like imposter syndrome and insecurities show up in all of our lives. In Jennie’s words, self-doubt comes up for clients especially in the beginning. Sometimes it is in the form of niche drama. Jennie shares “drama sounds negative” so prefers to call it niche exploration and views it as a right of passage. Oh the power of words—what if we could see our doubts and questions as rites of passage? How much richer would our experience be and how much more would we treasure it? Listen as we discuss how we can have faith and go “all in” and take our doubts and questions with us. You can connect with Jennie at https://jennielakenan.com.
