    Key Topics Covered:

    • Confidence and Authenticity: Why confidence grows when you live in alignment with your true self.

    Actionable Steps for Listeners:

    1. Reframe Confidence: Treat it as a skill to develop, not a trait you either have or don’t.
    2. Embrace Vulnerability: Be open to feedback and willing to try new things, even if they don’t go perfectly at first.
    3. Write a Confidence List: Reflect on everything you’ve accomplished in your life, big or small, as a reminder of your capability.
    4. Find Your Support Team: Surround yourself with people who uplift and encourage your growth.
    5. Challenge Your Inner Critic: Engage with the voice of self-doubt and question its validity to break free from fear.

    Catherine’s Aha Moments:

    • "Confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build."

    • "Being self-conscious is a primal instinct—understanding it helps you move past it."
    • "Confidence doesn’t mean being fearless; it means showing up despite the fear."

    Andrew’s Aha Moments:

    • "Confidence comes from surviving everything life has thrown at you and knowing you’ll figure it out again."
    • "Your ego wants to keep you safe, but safety doesn’t always mean growth."
    • "Vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s the path to strength."
    • "You’re not your inner critic; you’re the person who decides whether to listen to it."
