The Confidence Podcast: Confidence Tips for Self-Esteem, Self-Worth, Self-Love, Self-Confidence and Courage to Overcome Self-Doubt, Overthinking, Insecurity, Perfectionism, Procrastination and Impostor Syndrome

Have you ever felt crushed by someone else’s words? Maybe it was a bully from your past, a toxic co-worker, or even just someone who was having a bad day and decided to take it out on you. It’s tough, isn’t it? Those moments can leave us feeling small, second-guessing ourselves, or even spiraling into worst-case scenarios. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the messy world of bullies, mean people, and catastrophizing. We’re going to break it all down—how to handle the hurt, why some people act the way they do, and most importantly, how to stop letting their words and actions take up so much space in your head. But that’s not all—we’re also going to tackle that sneaky little habit so many of us fall into: catastrophizing. You know, that thing where you convince yourself that one awkward conversation or one bad day means your whole life is falling apart. Sound familiar? You’re not alone. By the end of this episode, you’re going to walk away feeling lighter, more in control, and armed with the tools to rise above negativity—whether it’s from other people or your own mind. So grab your coffee, throw on your sneakers, or settle into your favorite spot. We’re about to get real, raw, and ridiculously empowering.  In this episode we're coaching on:   What to do about bullies, old voices that haunt you, and mean people in life How to make sure you're not being a bully to yourself by being too hard on yourself The dangers of catastrophizing - and how to know if you're doing it unknowingly   The truth is that our fear of mean people throws us into catastrophizing, and then catastrophizing causes us to freeze. We freeze, we overthink and we stagnate. We let fear win. Don't be a person who lets fear win.   PLAN YOUR DREAM YEAR EVENT:  It's all happening in my live virtual event on Wednesday, December 18th, 7:30-9:30PM EST.

  Are you tired of questioning whether you measure up? Do you find yourself constantly comparing your life, your work, or even your worth to others? And what would it feel like to finally believe that who you are, right now, is enough? How do we measure "good enough" anyways? And we're not just talking about it in general, like "you're good enough", but what is "good enough" in work, in friendships, in your fitness, in life? How do you know if you're doing enough? How do you know if you're settling? How do you know if you're living life in such a way that you can relax and truly be proud of yourself? Welcome to The Confidence Podcast, where we dive deep into the heart of self-worth, identity, and unshakable confidence.
