In this episode I sit down with speaker, author and confidence coach Erin Summ to discuss how confidence plays a role in both our performance and happiness. Her background in psychology and as a certified Confidence Coach provides unique insight into the way we think about ourselves and the impact that has on our ability to overcome challenges and achieve our biggest goals.
From net worth to self worth, we dig into the “why” behind some of our tendencies and she shares some great tips and strategies for finding confidence and reducing stress - including my favorite part which are her 3 key questions to ask yourself in times of stress, doubt or burnout. Get ready to laugh, learn and hopefully take away some helpful ideas to build your personal and professional confidence.
Some of what we cover during the interview includes:
- The #1 confidence challenge (and how to handle it)
- Finding your own confidence
- The connection between confidence, success and happiness
- The 3 most important questions to ask yourself when facing doubt or burnout
- Overcoming fears & limiting beliefs
