I’m really excited to bring you this episode because I am a CLASSIC overthinker… let’s say a ‘recovering’ otherthinker… which we all know is the enemy of confidence.
Dr Ali Walker, who’s a human connection scientist, has written a fascinating book called Get Conscious. She’s done a TED talk about the same thing, she lectures at the UNSW and she has some answers for getting out of your own head.
Ali started her career as a criminal lawyer, realised it most definitely wasn’t for her, and now coaches and immerses herself into researching why us humans do the things we do. Our personality patterns, why we chase ‘happiness’ to our detriment, and she shares a transformational strategy for fighting the fear of getting out of our comfort zones.
“And then when you get a feeling, ok, it’s in my stomach, try to get an image for that feeling.”
So here’s the insightful Dr Ali Walker, on Claiming Her Confidence.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
