That voice in your head telling you you’re not ready… not qualified… not enough? It’s not the truth—it’s a trap. In this episode of Quest for Success, Dr. Jerry Cunningham—psychologist, leadership coach, and best-selling author—unpacks how that inner critic forms, why it’s so convincing, and what you can start doing today to stop it from running your life.

You’ll hear a powerful story about a young Army officer who went from self-doubt in jump school to leading at the highest levels of the 82nd Airborne. You’ll also get practical, psychology-backed tools to help you lead with clarity—in your work, your family, and your future.

This episode isn’t just motivational. It’s tactical. And it might be the breakthrough moment your confidence has been waiting for.
