We’ve been taught that confidence means the absence of anxiety, but what if that’s completely wrong? In this special crossover episode, I joined Anne and Frances from Fixable to talk about the hidden link between anxiety and confidence. They answer listener questions about feeling awkward at work, leading with trust, and staying confident during rejection. We also delve into why anxiety is not a flaw but a sign of growth, how to handle “awkward office moments” with grace, and how to turn setbacks into superpowers. Get ready to see your anxiety as proof that you care, not proof that you can’t. In this Episode, You Will Learn 00:00 Why anxiety and confidence are deeply connected. 04:00 How do you rebuild in-person confidence after remote work? 06:30 Why awkwardness at the office is completely normal. 09:00 The “Snack Week” experiment to practice connection and confidence. 13:00 Leadership lessons for helping your team build confidence. 15:00 Why weekend praise texts might backfire. 18:00 The right way to give feedback and celebrate failure. 21:00 How to stay confident through job rejection. 25:00 Why you already have confidence inside you. 30:00 How do you turn perfectionism into progress? 32:00 One Post-it exercise to stay grounded and confident every day.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
