Is anxiety holding you back from becoming the confident, unstoppable version of yourself? I sat down with Chantal Dempsey, an award-winning mindset and confidence coach, to talk about how we can shift from self-doubt to self-trust.

Chantal didn’t always do this work—she actually spent 15 years as a criminal profiler before transitioning into coaching. But at the core of both careers was the same fascination: understanding people. In our conversation, she explains how confidence is built (not something you’re just born with), why anxiety and confidence are actually opposites, and how self-trust plays a huge role in success. She also shares simple, practical steps anyone can take to start building confidence today.

If you’re tired of feeling stuck and ready to start believing in yourself, this episode is full of insights that will change how you see confidence.


TOPICS DISCUSSED:

  • Why confidence and anxiety are actually two ends of the same spectrum
  • How to build confidence even when you don’t feel it
  • The surprising link between self-trust and success
  • Why small wins matter (and how to start celebrating them)
  • How to communicate more effectively and strengthen relationships

BEST MOMENTS


"As anxiety goes, confidence grows." 


"People won't remember what you said to them, but they will remember how you make them feel." 


"You don’t trust that you're going to have the resilience to deal with it. Whereas when you feel confident, you do." 


"The more you set yourself some small goals, and the more you achieve them and notice you're achieving them, the more you're building that picture of yourself." 


"When you say to yourself, ‘I'm going to do this,’ and then you do it, you start to build trust in yourself." 


"Sometimes we hear people's stories or we look at people and you see where they are. But you don’t stop and think about what was the journey to get there."
