In this deep dive, we’re getting real about what it actually takes to build lasting self-confidence — not the fake-it-til-you-make-it kind, but genuine confidence that comes from keeping promises to yourself and trusting your capabilities. I’m breaking down how skipping those small commitments, like waking up when you said you would or following through on tiny goals, chips away at your confidence more than you realize. We’ll talk about how to rebuild that trust through small, sustainable habits, why confidence is really about self-trust, and how your brain collects evidence every day about what you’re capable of. This is your reminder that confidence isn’t something you’re born with — it’s something you build, one small promise at a time.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in a rut, let yourself down, or struggled to stay consistent with your habits, this episode is for you. Hit play and let’s dive in.
