Ep #121 The Confidence Catch-22: Why Believing You're 'Not Enough' is Actually Keeping You From Being Enough
Finding your parenting confidence is NOT about being perfect and more about embracing your inner 'I'm totally winging this but also kind of crushing it' energy. Today we're diving deep into the world of self-confidence.
The "Not Enough" Trap:
- Why this thought is about as helpful as chocolate-covered broccoli
- The moment I realized self-doubt was just being extra dramatic
- What Elon Musk and broken glass taught me about parenting (stay with me here...)
The Wild Truth About Self-Confidence:
- You can't validate your kids if you can't validate yourself!
- Why Michael Jordan's training mindset is exactly what we need for parenting
- The French have it right: I HAVE frustration - NOT - I AM frustrated (oui oui, mes amis!)
The Confidence Equation:
- Growth mindset = Self-confidence factory
- Fixed mindset = External validation hamster wheel
- Why failure is just spicy feedback (and how to use it)
Try This At Home:
✨ Start a "Why I'm Actually Awesome" list (even if it feels weird)
✨ Practice French-style emotion-having (oui, you can)
✨ Channel your inner confident penguin (they can't fly but strut anyway!)
Keep being perfectly imperfect!
