We are here this week talking about how to reclaim your confidence after you have slipped into jealousy. While this may not be a dramatic issue, it happens frequently and is worth discussing. We emphasize the importance of allowing jealousy to arise and serve its purpose, while committing to personal growth in relation to jealousy. It’s a process of continually facing discomfort, building skills to navigate difficult emotions, prioritizing showing up, and collaborating instead of retreating. We want you to remember that jealousy is about oneself, not about others. So show up, invest in relationships, and work towards your own personal growth in order to capture your confidence.

In this episode, we cover: * Curiosity is not about being emotional, it’s about discovery {1:28] * How curiosity can help us remove untrue thoughts we have in our minds [2:54] * The way we view curiosity [3:38] * How to respond to the voice of our curiosity [5:33] * Why gaining clarity around what we’re feeling can help unravel why we feel that way [8:27]

How many times have you had an issue arise with a friend, coworker, or spouse, and you knew you needed to talk to them about it, but avoided it at all costs? Having difficult conversations is, well, difficult. As a woman, it’s easy to worry what someone will think of us when we bring these conversations to light. What will they think of me? Will it come off as too aggressive? Will they not want to work with me again? But if we can address what is getting in the way of us having difficult conversations and equip ourselves with the skills on how to have them, we can remove that stress when they need to be had. We are diving into the dos and don’ts of having difficult conversations, so get your pens and paper ready, because this is going to be a good one. In this episode, we cover: * How to know when a difficult conversation is worth being had [2:36] * The things you should not do when having these conversations [4:56] * What you can do to go into having difficult conversations and come out feeling better [9:25]

The terms “confidence” and “self-esteem” are used so interchangeably, but they are so incredibly different. When people hear that we do a podcast all about confidence, they think we are talking about self-esteem. So, we thought it would be a great idea to dig into these two terms and see if they are really the same or different, as well as share some tips on how you can elevate both your self-esteem and confidence. In this episode, we cover: * The definition of both “confidence” and “self-esteem” [1:36] * What it looks like to have high confidence, but low self-esteem [3:28] * Having high self-esteem, but low confidence [5:14] * High self-esteem and high confidence [7:33] * Low self-esteem, low confidence [9:07] * How to increase your self-esteem and confidence based on what quadrant you land on [11:59]

We read an article recently that made us throw up in our mouths a bit when we read the headline. It was called, “How Confidence is Weaponized Against Women.” And it’s so true because as women, we’re damned if we do, damned if we don’t. We are told how important it is to build our confidence, yet once we do, we are then criticized. We want to walk you through this article and talk about how we’ve experienced the double-edged sword of building confidence as a woman in 2023. In this episode, we cover: * Why we shouldn’t fake it until we make it [2:10] * All the different things we are told to allude confidence, and how that can get into our heads [3:12] * Likeable people get stuff done [6:55] * Why confidence is weaponized against women [7:59] * How leaders can help try to foster confidence in women [11:17] * The power of quiet confidence [15:57]

Our most popular episode of the year was Finding Confidence From Sports, Setting Boundaries, and Raising Confident Children with Nici Workman.

In celebration of the year ending, we are reviewing our top five most listened podcast episodes of 2022. Our second most popular episode of the year was How Intuitive Eating Can Help You Gain Confidence in a World Surrounded by Diet Culture with Simi Botic. Diet culture is that collection of social expectations that dictates our self-worth with the way our body looks. In doing so it tells us what to do, what to eat, and how to look in order to feel worthy, accepted, and validated. All in all, diet culture sucks but unfortunately a lot of women are stuck in this cycle of hating their bodies and practicing restrictive eating patterns because they think it’s something they need to do. In today’s episode we are talking to our good friend Simi Botic an intuitive eating counselor, and health coach who has literally helped hundreds of women break up with diet culture During our conversation, Simi talks about making the transition from being a corporate healthcare attorney and struggling with disordered eating patterns. She shares why confidence means trust, why she tries to be a model of confidence and compassion for her clients, and why diet culture is rooted in a lot of systemic oppression. In this episode, we cover: * Simi shares more about her own experience with restrictive eating and her own work * Tapping into your confidence to combat diet culture through trust and self-compassion * Quick fixes don’t work: why confidence comes from the inside * Misleading messages that damage women’s confidence * How motherhood has changed the way Simi views confidence * The legacy Simi hopes to leave

For those that don’t know, Stephanie has lived her whole life having curly hair. In fact, she has spent over 10 years straightening her hair week after week simply because that’s what she’s always seen other people with curly hair do. Stephanie never actually realized just how much confidence stuff was wrapped up in your hair until she had a very special moment with her daughter, who also has curly hair. As moms, we all have those moments where our kids see a bit of themselves in us and can relate to us on a deeper level. And it’s so important to show them that we can own our authenticity so that they can feel comfortable doing the same.

Women are doing it all, whether it’s running a business, being a CEO, raising a family or showing up in all the different hats we wear across time and space.

Regan knows everything about confidence, courage, and feeling the fear but doing it anyway. During our conversation Regan talks about why her gut instinct is the best tool she could ever have.

Diet culture is that collection of social expectations that dictates our self-worth with the way our body looks. In doing so it tells us what to do, what to eat, and how to look in order to feel worthy, accepted, and validated. All in all, diet culture sucks but unfortunately a lot of women are stuck in this cycle of hating their bodies and practicing restrictive eating patterns because they think it’s something they need to do. In today’s episode we are talking to our good friend Simi Botic an intuitive eating counselor, and health coach who has literally helped hundreds of women break up with diet culture During our conversation, Simi talks about making the transition from being a corporate healthcare attorney and struggling with disordered eating patterns.

Women are doing it all, whether it’s running a business, being a CEO, raising a family or showing up in all the different hats we wear across time and space.

Regan knows everything about confidence, courage, and feeling the fear but doing it anyway. During our conversation Regan talks about why her gut instinct is the best tool she could ever have.

In this episode, we cover: * The hyper achiever - you’re always striving to be great [4:22] * Feedback and the hyper achiever mindset [7:11] * The hyper-vigilant - you’re always alert [10:48] * Feedback and time management as a hyper-vigilant mindset [13:28] * The hyper-rational - you’re learning everything to feel safe [15:42] * Feedback and preparedness as a hyper-rational mindset [17:46]

Over the next few weeks we are taking a look back at the top five episodes of 2021. We're going to start with number five which is "It's Time to Reclaim Your Confidence". This episode really lays the framework for the podcast where we share a little bit about our own confidence journeys and our desire to empower as many women as we can to truly capture their confidence.
In this episode, Stephanie and Whitney dive into the vision for the podcast: to empower women who desire to step into their value and aren’t not afraid to go after the life they want. They discuss how when you're in a new environment and industry where others look confident it can make you feel inferior until you learn how to flex your own competence muscle. Whitney shares how as she navigated her entrepreneurial journey a consistent thread showed up with her clients ability to achieve success, a lack of confidence in themselves. Stephanie tells of a time in her life where she wished she had done more confidence work because it would have served her well.

We're kicking off a 4 episode series dedicated to the way we sabotage ourselves, and really try to understand what these trigger points are and how we can work around them. At the end of the day, we are humans, and while we can’t control everything, we can take steps to engineer our successes and feel more confident in our own lives. Stephanie and Whitney discuss the steps you can take to mitigate self sabotaging behaviors. They outline ways you can identify your own saboteurs and share a quiz you can take to find out how to identify self sabotaging behaviors. In this episode, we cover saboteur #1: the “Judge '' - that inner critic that thinks it’s pushing you to do better when in reality it’s only making you miserable. In this episode, we cover: * The first step to mitigating self sabotaging behaviors is to identify what those behaviors are through positive intelligence [1:33] * Self criticism and judgement doesn’t make you a better person [3:10] * The most pervasive Judge is conditional judgment [4:40] * The role of the Judge is to ensure your emotional safety [6:27]

While that might seem scary, we want to help you understand how to stay in alignment with your integrity and not get overwhelmed with procrastination! In this episode, we cover: * How does procrastination show up for us?

It might be tempting to stick your head in the sand at this very moment when the going gets tough, but in reality, running away from your problems and fear are only going to breed more problems and more fear! In this episode, Stephanie and Whitney dig a little deeper and explore what ignorance is and how it is a breeding ground for fear. Ignorance is not a fixed place and it can easily be changed. You have more control over what you learn and what knowledge you gain than you can imagine. They explain what you need to do to get back on track and navigate that place of avoidance so that it no longer controls you. In this episode, we cover: * What is ignorance? [0:59] * The most common things we avoid and fear: hard conversations, asking for help, talking about yourself, taking charge of your health and finance [3:46] * How to spot the red flags of avoidance [6:19] * Why do you find yourself avoiding things, and what can you do to offset that default pattern of behavior?

In this episode you’ll hear: * Whitney and Stephanie dive straight in and discuss how to deal with criticism and negative feedback. Lesson #1, feedback is always a gift. You’re in control of what you do with it (1:02) * Myth #1, does feedback and negative always have to have a negative connotation? One way to address feedback is to view it like a performance review and a way to grow (4:35) * Tip #1, find a way to separate you from the process/feedback so it doesn’t feel like a personal attack. Most people aren’t trained how to give good feedback! (6:34) * Tip #2, instead of responding immediately to feedback, take a step back and take a deep breath. Don’t step in, interrupt or get defensive (9:01) * Tip #3, body language is everything! Focus on relaxing your face and eyes and holding yourself in an open position (10:35) * Whitney and Stephanie share a helpful formula for the best method to deliver feedback (11:32) * Tip #4, be mindful!
