We often tell women they need more confidence. But what if confidence starts with borrowing someone else’s belief in you—until you can find your own?
In this solo episode, Stephanie shares a personal story from the provincial basketball championships with her 14-year-old daughter. A moment of nerves turns into a turning point, and the lessons go far beyond the court.
You’ll hear about how girls—and women—hold themselves back, and how we can push past imposter syndrome, doubt, and fear to take the shot. This one’s short, powerful, and perfect to share with a young woman in your life. (Yes, even 11-year-olds will benefit—Stephanie brought hers into the conversation too.)
💡 You’ll Learn:
- How to reframe self-doubt by leaning into others' belief in you
- Why girls start doubting themselves early and how we can intervene
- Surprising stats about men vs. women applying for jobs
- Wise advice from a 14-year-old athlete with a message for all of us
- Why “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” isn’t just a sports quote—it’s a life mantra
🗓️ Weekly Call to Action:
Say yes to something before you feel ready. Borrow belief from a mentor, a coach, a boss—or even this podcast—and step forward with power.
