Living with Parkinson’s | Bryce Perry

Parkinson’s Stole My Confidence—Here’s How I’m Getting It Back!


Listen Later

Have you ever cancelled plans—not because you were busy, but because you were worried about your Parkinson’s symptoms showing up in public? You’re not alone. In this honest episode, Bryce opens up about the spiral of lost confidence that Parkinson’s can bring, from freezing in public to worrying about hand tremors at the grocery store. He shares real-life stories of embarrassment, isolation, and how rebuilding confidence is never about one “big moment”—it’s about celebrating those tiny, everyday victories.

Learn practical, hard-won strategies for taking your confidence back: lowering the bar for success, focusing on what you can control, letting people in, and learning to talk to yourself like you would a friend. Bryce also shares the new mindset shifts he’s practicing right now, and challenges the community to push back against fear, one small step at a time.

Questions for You:

  • What everyday moments have challenged your confidence the most?
  • What’s one part of your old self you miss—and how are you working to get it back (or create something new)?
  • What’s your go-to “confidence boost” when things get tough?

Share your story in the comments and lift someone else up—because this isn’t just a podcast, it’s a real community. And if you’re struggling today, you’re not alone.

Bryce-ism of the Episode:
“With Parkinson’s, confidence isn’t about not being scared—it’s about showing up anyway, even when your hands are shaking.”
