Untapped Confidence
Untapped Confidence is a podcast for high-achieving women who want more than just surface-level self-improvement; they want to feel powerfully secure in who they are, no matter the situation.
Hosted by Raffaela Marie - speaker, mentor, and creator of the STRENGTH Method - who overcame chronic skin picking, selective mutism, social anxiety, and depression not by waiting for confidence to appear, but by building it with intention from the inside out.
Each episode explores what’s really going on beneath the surface when your confidence shrinks and offers science-based tools to help you let go of pressure, self-doubt, and performative patterns.
Authentic confidence isn’t one-size-fits-all. It isn’t about becoming louder, tougher, or more polished. It’s about becoming more you, feeling at home in yourself, and learning how to live, lead, and simply be from that place.
If you’re ready to reclaim your voice, your presence, and a deep sense of peace - this space is for you.

72: Friendship as an Adult - Why It’s Hard & How to Make It Easy | Adam Hudson
Making new friends as an adult can feel confusing, awkward, or even impossible, but it doesn’t have to be.
In this episode, Adam Hudson returns to break down why adult friendship feels so hard, how your past experiences shape your current relationships, and what to do about it starting today.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in surface-level connections or unsure how to deepen friendships without oversharing or people-pleasing, this conversation will hit home.
We cover:
- The 3 levels of friendship and how to deepen each one
- Why some friendships drain you (and what to do about it)
- How your past pain, especially from school years, shapes your social life now
- Real ways to build meaningful connections without trying so hard
- What not to ignore when bringing someone into your inner circle
Whether you’re craving deeper bonds or just want to feel less alone, this episode gives you a grounded, real-world path forward. And as always, expect personal stories, a few laughs, and a whole lot of authenticity.
