Into The Wild 449. The Confidence Paradox: Why Being Seen Cures Self-Doubt
Here's why it's so important to be seen.
I grew a business and raised babies at the same time, all while being married to a man who seemingly drinks jet fuel. Still, I had my own experiences in struggling with confidence. If you've ever looked like you were winning on the outside but felt discouraged and unworthy on the inside, you've been there too.
Today I'll reveal how you can build self-worth that doesn't rely on approval from anybody else (or validation from your achievements). Who you are is already good enough, but the more you learn to validate yourself, the more the world will reflect that back to you.
In this episode, you will learn about:
- How we've been taught to measure our worth the wrong way (and how to fix it).
- The lie women everywhere have been sold about confidence and what it actually is.
- How the confidence feedback system reinforces your positive self-belief.
- Why putting other people on a pedestal is actually a subtle form of self-sabotage.
- What happens to your self-worth when you seek praise and approval from others.
- What the neuroscience says about unhooking our need for approval.
- The myth that you need confidence before you can show up.
- How showing up and being seen helps you build confidence.
