It's not that you've stopped believing in yourself. It's that you keep abandoning yourself — quietly, habitually — every time you follow someone else's advice about how to build your business. Every time you post what you think you should instead of what's actually alive in you. Every time a "yeah but" creeps in and drowns out what your gut already knows.
The filters aren't always loud. They're subtle. They look like professionalism. Like strategy. Like being reasonable. Like listening to the people who've done it before.
But somewhere in that listening — you stop hearing yourself.
