Across thousands of hours of coaching, training others, and–of course–a few of my own stumbles and fumbles, I’ve learned a few things about becoming more confident, the hard way. Here are 9 things to know about becoming more confident that will shift how you think about yourself.

Confidence isn't about arrogance or constant affirmation but about owning our capabilities and accomplishments without diminishing others. We'll discuss how avoiding destructive habits and labels that limit us can foster confidence, and why consistency and effort over time build true self-assurance. Join me as we uncover how facing life's challenges head-on and processing our emotions can lead to a more confident and fulfilling life.

Today's episode from the archive gets into alternatives to trying to silence those critical beliefs and instead transform them.
