Breaking Free from Self-Doubt with Steve Barton

What if the biggest obstacle standing between you and success is the way you think? In this episode of The Ambitious One, we sit down with Steve Barton, executive coach, author, and creator of The Game of Ten®—an awareness-based coaching framework designed to help people overcome fear, self-doubt, guilt, and shame. With over 47 years of business experience, Steve helped grow his family’s retail floral business from $200,000 to $2 million in annual revenue. Through his journey, he discovered that financial success doesn’t automatically bring peace of mind, confidence, or fulfilling relationships. Steve now helps entrepreneurs, executives, and high achievers develop greater self-awareness, improve their decision-making, and achieve meaningful success without sacrificing their personal lives. In this conversation, we explore: How fear and self-doubt can hold us back from reaching our potential. The Game of Ten® and the importance of awareness. Why successful people can still struggle with confidence and fulfillment. How emotional intelligence can improve leadership and decision-making. The role of intuition and intentionality in personal growth. How to pursue ambition without sacrificing your peace of mind. Practical advice for young people navigating uncertainty and building their future. Steve reminds us that success isn’t just about what we accomplish externally. It’s also about how we think, how we lead, how we treat others, and how we feel about the life we’re building. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, felt behind in life, or wondered how to achieve more while feeling more fulfilled, this conversation is for you.
