From Self-Doubt to Clarity: Pivots, Belief, and Finding Ground | | iNNOVATION Insights

Описание: Sometimes the hardest part of starting something new is believing that you belong there.

In this launch highlight reel from Episode 74 of the iNNOVATION Insights Podcast, Dr. Michelle Burton reflects on returning to academia after time away and the self-doubt that came with it. She shares the quiet questions many people carry: Can I actually do this? Is this space really for me?

Her journey into fashion was not something she planned. She entered college as a pre-med student, then realized the path she had chosen did not fit who she was becoming. Searching for stability and clarity, she pivoted in ways that felt uncertain but ultimately led her toward deeper alignment with herself.

Dr. Burton also speaks about finding peace and solace in nature. Walking trails became her space to retreat, reflect, and reconnect. In moments of transition, grounding practices can provide the steadiness needed to keep moving forward.

This highlight captures the emotional reality of pivots, imposter feelings, and the quiet courage it takes to trust yourself through change.
