71: The Science of Confidence—Small Actions, Big Results
Today, Penny shares a heartwarming birthday story from her childhood—choosing her very first bicycle—and uses it as a powerful metaphor for building confidence. Penny believes that confidence isn’t something you’re born with; it’s something you cultivate through action, practice, and a willingness to face your fears.
In this episode, she unpacks the science behind confidence, the importance of movement (both physically and emotionally), and provides practical, bite-sized strategies to help you boost your self-assurance every single day. Whether it’s making a declaration with a “red marker,” striking a power pose, or simply celebrating small wins, Penny is here to guide you through the wobbles and the wins on your journey to a phenomenal life.
Pour yourself your favorite beverage and get ready to shake things up as you learn how to pivot with passion and ride the confidence wave forward!

STRATEGIES INSIDE THE PODCAST
Strategies you can use to help you strengthen and flex your confidence muscle and move you towards success!
🟢 Power Poses: Stand tall, shoulders back, chin up—for 2 minutes. It boosts testosterone and lowers cortisol (aka, stress). It’s your built-in body armor.
🟢 Breath Work: Try this: take 3 slow, deep breaths before a tough convo or meeting. Breathe through your nose, out through your mouth. It grounds your nervous system fast.
🟢 Daily Courage Challenge: Choose one small, uncomfortable thing each day: ask a question, say no, speak up. Micro-bravery builds self-trust.
🟢 Celebration Ritual: After any confidence-building moment, mark it. Say “I did that!” out loud. Give yourself a wink in the mirror. Whatever makes you feel good. Celebrate the evidence.
