EP 94 Confidence is More Than Cosmetics... Putting Your Best Self Forward | Maureen Kritzer-Lange MSW LCSW

How do you put your best self forward? Is it when you’re stepping into a job interview… showing up for a first date… attending a family gathering… or simply walking into the grocery store? In this episode, I’m sharing some honest reflections on what it really takes—not just on the outside, but from the inside out.

I recently did a photo shoot, and I was reminded how much effort goes into being "camera-ready." From hair and makeup to lighting and wardrobe—it truly took a village. But here’s the thing: most of us don’t have a glam squad behind us every day. And putting your best self forward isn’t about having the perfect look—it’s about feeling aligned, confident, and radiating your energy.

So… how do we show up for ourselves when there’s no photo shoot, no stylist, no filters?

It’s about planning, yes—but it’s also about mindset. It’s about giving yourself those extra few minutes to feel put together. It’s about surrounding yourself with people who support your shine. It’s about knowing what makes you feel good—whether that’s wearing your favorite outfit, practicing affirmations, or simply taking a breath before you walk out the door.

Remember: Don’t Trust The Mirror. Trust Yourself.Confidence is more than cosmetics—it’s how you feel inside.
