In this episode, Steve Woods explores how fear and self-doubt are shaped at the subconscious level — and why they feel so real, even when nothing is "wrong." Drawing from his work in hypnosis, performance, and personal development, Steve breaks down how beliefs are formed, how overthinking sabotages confidence, and why the mind often overprotects us through fear, avoidance, and self-doubt. We explore imposter syndrome, career transitions, and the quiet psychological patterns that influence performance in sport, business, and everyday life.

The conversation also covers visualisation, self-hypnosis, mindfulness, and emotional awareness as practical tools for breaking negative patterns, building resilience, and creating lasting change - without forcing or fixing yourself. This episode is for anyone questioning their confidence, navigating change, or wanting a deeper understanding of how the subconscious quietly shapes behaviour.
