Ever walk away from a conversation thinking, “Why didn’t I just say what I meant?”
That gut punch isn’t just frustration—it’s a sign of something deeper. In episode 241, The Confidence Gap No One Talks About, we unpack why so many midlife women silence themselves—and how to break that cycle.
This episode is about power. The quiet kind. The kind you feel when you reclaim your voice in midlife and finally say what you mean.
We explore what the confidence gap really looks like. It’s not always obvious. Sometimes it hides behind people-pleasing, over-explaining, or brushing off your own needs to keep the peace. But the cost? It’s your clarity, energy, and self-trust.
You’ll learn five powerful mindset shifts that help you set boundaries without guilt, stop second-guessing, and speak up—without apologizing for it.
We discuss emotional strength in the same way we discuss physical strength. You build it with reps. Practice. One honest sentence at a time.
