Struggling with workplace confidence? You're not alone. In this episode of Career Espresso, Amanda tackles the myth that confidence is something you're born with, revealing how it's actually a skill you can develop through practice.
Research shows that what looks like "natural confidence" is really the result of deliberate practice. This episode explores the three pillars that transform professional self-trust: competence awareness, boundary setting, and resilience through failure.
You'll learn practical strategies to build your confidence muscle, including how to -
➡️ Create an evidence journal to bank your successes
➡️ Practice "micro-boldness" with small daily actions
➡️ Develop a resilience ritual for bouncing back from setbacks
Plus, we address common confidence traps that hold professionals back and answer frequently asked questions about building self-trust at any career stage.
Whether you speak up first in meetings or prefer to contribute quietly, this episode gives you actionable tools to trust yourself more deeply at work. Your career success starts with trusting yourself first.
