In this episode, I unpack the difference between confidence, competence and
self-esteem —and why so many women are trying to solve the wrong problem.
A lot of women say they want more confidence, but in reality the deeper issue is often self- esteem. Confidence is usually skill-based and built through repetition, while self-esteem is internal. It shapes what you believe you deserve, what you tolerate, and whether you settle in your work, money, body, standards, or relationships.
In this episode, I explore:
● Why confidence is often misunderstood
● The role of competence in communication, work and visibility
● Why so-called "imposter syndrome" is often a mix of low self-esteem and
underdeveloped skill confidence
● How women can appear confident on the outside while still lacking solid self-esteem
internally
● Why low self-esteem is often the real reason women settle
If you want to stop performing confidence and start building a life that actually feels aligned, this episode is for you.
