The Psychology Behind Seeking Before Speaking
Episode Title: Stop Scanning. Start Commanding: Reclaiming Your Voice with Reflection
Episode Summary:
In this powerful episode of The T.O.C. Talk—Table of Confidence, we’re naming the habit many high-achieving women know too well: scanning the room before speaking.
Whether it was a teacher, a colleague, or a moment that made you question your voice, those experiences can quietly shape how you lead, show up, and contribute. But here’s the shift—when you stop scanning for “her” and start commanding from the woman you’ve become, everything changes.
We anchor this episode in the first letter of the REWIRED framework: Reflection and walk through how to turn past wounds into present-day wisdom.
Because you weren’t made to shrink.
You were made to lead.
And not just lead but liberate.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- What Social Identity Threat looks like in leadership
- Why scanning the room isn’t insecurity, it’s survival instinct
- How reflection helps you release old narratives and reclaim your voice
- A powerful REWIRED action step to help you stop shrinking and start commanding the room
- How to lead with purpose instead of performance
