The STRONG Network with Dr. Carla Michelle

Are you stuck in the same routines, habits, and thought patterns—waiting for change but not making the moves to create it? It's time to disrupt.In this episode of The STRONG Network Podcast, I'm breaking down why disruption isn't just for business—it's for your life. True growth requires breaking free from what no longer serves you, whether it's outdated mindsets, toxic environments, or limiting beliefs.

Confidence isn't something you wait for—it's something you build. If you've been waiting to “feel ready” before making a move, this episode is for you.In today's episode of The S.T.R.O.N.G. Network Podcast, I'm breaking down the 3 stages of confidence that you must go through to grow: Fear – The hesitation, the doubt, the voice telling you to play small. Stretching – The discomfort of stepping into the unknown and proving to yourself that you CAN. Ownership – The moment you stop questioning yourself and fully step into your power.I'll share a personal story of how I had to build confidence in real time, with no guarantees—just faith and forward movement. Because the truth is: confidence doesn't come first—action does.Where are you in your confidence journey? Drop a comment and let's talk about it.Want more?
