#69 Am I Good Enough to Do This? with Laura Eigel, Organizational Psychologist

Be The Wolf

This week I talk with Laura Eigel, Organizaional Psychologist. Even though she had a Ph.D., but she found herself thinking she wasn’t good enough at many points in her career. But she kept stepping through the fear. And when she realized she wasn’t growing anymore she took the entrepreneurial leap to help others.
We discuss the theme of self-doubt and navigating the tension between personal and career growth.

Laura shares her journey of overcoming the feeling of not being good enough, the importance of understanding personal values, and tips for achieving fulfillment in one's career.

The episode provides insights on how to align work with personal values and emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and courage in career and entrepreneurial growth.
