Are we getting confidence all wrong? To debunk our cultural myths about confidence — and teach us proven strategies to build and strengthen this crucial skill — I’m joined by Erika Cramer, also known as The Queen of Confidence. After an early life colored by trauma and abuse, followed by experiences that would completely derail many people (like breaking her back and the death of her husband), Erika emerged from her challenges stronger and more empowered than ever. She’s now on a mission to teach women across the globe how to take up space, turn trauma into triumph, and emerge from their struggles feeling stronger and more confident than ever. In this massively useful and inspiring conversation, you’ll learn: the truth about confidence (and what it REALLY takes to create it), why most of what we’ve been told about building confidence is wrong, the 5 steps that will help you step into your true power, why the “fake it ‘til you make it” mindset can do more harm than good, proven methods for breaking the cycle of Imposter Syndrome, effective methods to build your self-worth, and simple techniques to nurture your relationship with yourself. If you want to stop obsessing about what other people think of you, let go of people-pleasing once and for all, and create the ultimate confidence mindset then press play now… this one’s for you.
