Confidence Matters

Is AI making us more connected—or more isolated?That’s the question I explored in this fascinating conversation last week with Nick Neve of Relationships With a Soul.

Some of the takeaways that really stuck with me:👉 “We’re tribal beings. We need community.”👉 “AI knows exactly what to say to you. But it can’t feel it.”👉 “Some of the best growth comes from being challenged—and AI will never challenge you like a good friend will.”

We talked about the hidden risks of relying on AI for emotional support, relationships, and even personal development—and why self-awareness and conscious use of technology are now more important than ever.

This conversation might change the way you think about your relationship with AI.

My guest on Confidence Journeys this week was transformational coach, Paul Louis of the Inner Freedom Network.

We talk about Paul’s former addiction to pornography and how he managed to heal and recover. This is Paul’s first Substack Live stream, and I must applaud his courage in speaking his truth and being vulnerable here.

We also engage in some profound conversations about the miracle of life, meditation, and how to connect with the deepest parts of yourself.

There was a technical breakdown towards the end of our discussion, so apologies for the confusion. Alain and I had to leave and start a new live. So we finish off in part 2!

If you watch this and then the following video, it will become clear.

We talk about living a heart-centred life - embracing love, gratitude and kindness. Is it weak to live like this? It makes us vulnerable of course, but do the benefits outweigh the risks?

We think so.

This was the first time Jasmine Charbonier of Media Marketing Connect has been live on Substack. She was wonderful, and we had a great time.

Jasmine discussed the importance of establishing a personal brand. She said that we all have a personal brand because, as soon as you walk into a room, people start forming opinions about you. So, what do you want people to think?

Discover how Jasmine gained confidence talking on camera and how you can do the same.

Jasmine also shares her recommendations for newbies to Substack.

In this week’s episode of Confidence Journeys, I talk to Philip Hofmacher of Write Build Scale.

We discuss the meaning of success and whether self-confidence is necessary in order to be successful.

Philip tells the wonderful story of how he met his fiancée and partner in WBS, Sinem Günel and how he started his entrepreneurship.

We talk about Substack strategies, and Philip gives his advice for connecting with other writers.

This was a really great conversation with someone who is building a successful business within Write Build Scale. I do recommend looking them up.

Goldie's mission is to support people through troubled times through her music, poetry and writing. She has two Substacks: ‘Trying to Live’! and ‘Lean on Me’.

She provides a space for growth, healing and connection. Goldie’s belief is that intentional growth can prevent many of the deep wounds that life sometimes hands us.

Well, I loved the first episode of my new Monday show ‘Confidence Journeys.’In this live episode, I am joined by Taylor Ellwood of Magical Experiments.

Taylor uses magic and spirit work to transform old patterns, such as not being good enough, and create space for self-transformation from the inside out.

Talking about his confidence journey, Taylor says he takes any confusion, doubt or fear and uses that energy as fuel to push him toward getting what he wants out of life.
