EP: 37 | The Confidence Conversation: Empowering Women with Jill Murphy
What does confidence really look like when you strip away titles, job descriptions, and the number on the scale?
In this candid conversation, I sit down with Jill Murphy — former nurse in a male-dominated field turned nutrition and fitness coach — to explore the layers of self-worth, body image, and how societal expectations can quietly shape our health.
Jill opens up about the transition from chasing external approval to embracing self-acceptance, and how that shift not only changed her own life but also the way she guides others. We talk about raising kids in a world full of conflicting messages, redefining beauty, and teaching the next generation to make empowered, informed choices about their bodies and their well-being.
This is an honest, hopeful dialogue about confidence — not as a quick fix, but as something built, lived, and owned over time.
✨ Key Takeaways:
- Your worth isn’t determined by the scale — or by anyone else’s opinion.
- Confidence comes from knowing who you are and standing in it.
- True health is rooted in facts, not fear.
- Representation matters — the world needs your version of beauty.
- We can raise the next generation to navigate their choices with confidence.
