Stepping Into Your Confidence: No More Playing Small
Confidence... it’s something we all want to feel, yet sometimes, it feels just out of reach. Whether it’s second-guessing ourselves, shrinking in spaces that don’t support our growth, or letting self-doubt take the wheel, so many of us struggle to fully own our power.
In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, we’re breaking down why confidence can feel so hard to hold onto and, more importantly, how we can shift our mindset to embrace it fully. Because confidence isn’t about faking it—it’s about believing in who we are and stepping into that power with intention.
TUNE IN TO LEARN:
- Why self-doubt creeps in, even when we know we’re capable
- The impact of negative self-talk and how to rewire it
- Three powerful ways to strengthen your confidence
- The connection between mindset, environment, and self-belief
- A guided meditation to help you step into your confidence

TAKEAWAY MESSAGE:
Confidence isn’t something we’re born with—it’s something we build. And while self-doubt may try to hold us back, we have the power to rewrite our inner narrative and step into the strongest, most authentic version of ourselves. So let’s stop shrinking, start believing, and walk boldly into the confidence that has been ours all along.
Listen in, and remember… you’re always free to be mindful.
