Feel like confidence is something other people just have—but you don’t?
If anxiety has you second-guessing everything—from how you speak to how you show up—you’re not alone.

In this powerful episode, therapist and mindset coach Jessica Davis shares how even the most confident people once struggled with doubt—and what made the difference. This episode unpacks the “E” in her C.O.U.R.A.G.E. Method: Embrace the Wins—a mindset shift that changes everything.

You’ll learn how the way you talk to yourself is directly shaping your self-worth, your decisions, and how others see you.

More importantly, you’ll discover how to stop downplaying your progress—and start building unshakable confidence, one small win at a time.

This isn’t about pretending you’re fearless. It’s about choosing courage in small moments that feel hard—and celebrating them as the wins they are.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why self-talk isn’t harmless—and how negative patterns hold you back
• The truth about people with anxiety (hint: they’re not arrogant—they’re under-celebrated)
• Why embracing small wins is the key to building real confidence
• What to say instead of “it’s not a big deal” when you do something hard
• How to break the cycle of self-doubt without faking positivity

Whether your win is showing up to class, speaking up in a conversation, or simply getting out of bed—you’ll leave this episode feeling empowered to see yourself differently.
