Failure has been taught all wrong.

Most people think failure means something went wrong—that it's proof they weren't good enough, ready enough, or capable enough. And that belief quietly keeps them stuck.

In this episode, I'm redefining failure in a way that actually builds confidence instead of destroying it. You'll learn why failure is not the opposite of success, how willingness matters more than outcomes, and how to stay proud of yourself even when results don't match your effort.

If you've ever tried, fallen short, and wondered whether it was worth it—this episode will change how you see yourself and your progress.

Do you struggle with confidence around intimidating people—like powerful leaders, confident coworkers, outspoken friends, or people who seem "ahead" of you?

In this episode, confidence coach Trish Blackwell breaks down how to be confident around intimidating people without feeling small, awkward, or self-conscious. You'll learn why intimidation is usually an internal story (not a personality flaw), how to stop comparing yourself in high-pressure interactions, and how to stay grounded in your identity even when someone else has strong presence.

This episode covers:

• How to be confident in social situations
• How to stop feeling intimidated by others
• How to be confident around successful people
• How to stop shrinking yourself around confident personalities
• How to build self-confidence without changing who you are

If you've ever felt nervous, inferior, or "less than" around certain people, this episode will give you practical tools to walk into any room with calm, grounded confidence—without pretending or overcompensating.

When results feel invisible, it's easy to stop believing in yourself — and that's usually the moment people quit. In this episode, we're talking about why effort always matters, how belief is trained (not hoped for), and what to do when your mindset starts questioning whether your small actions count.

You'll learn how to rebuild belief through simple journaling, why effort compounds before it shows up, and how to strengthen the skill of believing in yourself even when progress feels slow. If you've been showing up but secretly wondering, "Is this even working?" — this episode will reset your perspective and help you keep going with confidence.

Intrusive thoughts can feel disturbing, confusing, and incredibly convincing — especially when you don't understand why they show up or what they say about you.

In this episode, I'm breaking down:

• What intrusive thoughts actually are (and why they target what matters most to you)
• Why your brain produces them — even when nothing is "wrong"
• The biggest mistake people make when trying to get rid of intrusive thoughts
• How to create distance from a thought without fighting it or believing it

If you've ever thought, "Why would I even think this?" or "What does this say about me?" — this episode will help you feel calmer, clearer, and far less afraid of your own mind.

Intrusive thoughts don't mean what you think they mean — and today, we're unpacking why.

Do you constantly replay conversations in your head and overanalyze what you said, how you sounded, or how you were perceived? That post-conversation spiral is one of the fastest ways to drain your confidence and peace.

In this episode, I'm teaching you why your brain gets stuck in the replay loop, the hidden fear underneath it, and exactly how to break the cycle — without needing reassurance, overexplaining, or perfection.

You'll walk away with:

• A clear explanation of why your brain replays

• The real root of post-conversation anxiety

• Simple tools to stop ruminating

• And a mindset shift that frees you from needing everyone's approval

If you're ready to quiet the mental noise and trust yourself again, this episode is for you.

Most people don't need better goals — they need better questions.

The way you think, decide, and follow through in the next year will be shaped by the questions you ask yourself consistently. In this episode, I walk you through the exact journal prompts I use to design a year with clarity, confidence, and momentum.

You'll learn how to:

• ask questions that create awareness instead of pressure

• spot patterns that quietly sabotage follow-through

• clarify the identity you're building next year

• replace unhelpful inner narratives with empowering ones

• use simple journal prompts to guide better daily decisions

This isn't about setting perfect goals or forcing motivation. It's about asking the kinds of questions that orient your mind, strengthen self-trust, and help you follow through — even when things feel messy or uncertain.

If you're ready to stop drifting into the new year and start designing it with intention, this episode will give you the questions that make the difference.

"The quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask yourself."

"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."

— Albert Einstein

"If you want better answers, ask better questions."

Friendship shouldn't be confusing, but it often is — especially when you're a kind, high-capacity, emotionally generous person.

The truth?

Not everyone will make the effort you make.

Not everyone is meant to be trusted at a deep level.

And that's okay.

Today we're talking about how to read friendship signals, how to stop being hurt by people who don't reciprocate, and how to choose the right people to trust — without becoming cynical, guarded, or lonely.
