This episode goes beyond a pep talk. It provides leaders with concrete steps to convert hidden struggles into strategic momentum.

Here’s what you’ll take away:

1. Two Kinds of Confidence—Train the Right One
   Separate epistemic (depth, preparation, credibility) from social (voice, stage, visibility). Diagnose, then drill for 30 days: ask one relevant question in every meeting; prep two intentional introductions at every event.
2. Multiply Visibility—Don’t Chase It
   Engineer advocacy with the Multiplier Effect: span boundaries outside your lane, activate weak ties for fresh reach, and gift five-minute favours that compound into sponsorship.
3. Design What’s Next—The Momentum Map
   Clarify joy + strengths, list skills/resources, socialise your idea, then plot a week-by-week plan. Adjust as you learn, be honest and become stronger.
