Most men think confidence means never failing. Or never doubting yourself.

That’s wrong.

Real confidence is built in the messy, uncomfortable moments — when you fail, doubt yourself, and still keep moving forward.


In this episode of The Work, I break down:

  • Why confidence and resilience go hand-in-hand
  • How perfection is silently killing your confidence
  • What’s holding you back from building competence 
  • And how to move forward even when fear and doubt show up

Confidence isn’t a destination — it’s a practice. And you can start building it today.
