Subscribe to Alli's New Substack - Wise Woman Method    You don't need confidence to start. You need evidence. Tiny actions. Brave reps. Faithful little steps that give your brain something solid to hold onto. Proof that says, We've done hard things before. We can do this again. Confidence isn't the prerequisite. It's the fruit of showing up long before you feel ready.   Most of us stay stuck because we're waiting to feel qualified, healed, calm, or magically fearless. We dress it up and call it wisdom, strategy, or “just praying about it a little longer.” But deep down, we know the truth: that perfect, confident moment we're hoping for never actually arrives.   Confidence doesn't get you moving. Courage does. Confident women don't start being confident. They start wobbly, unsure, and a little sweaty. They take the next right step anyway. Over time, they build a history of bravery. A stack of real-life evidence that whispers, I survived that uncomfortable thing. I can do the next one too. And that evidence, not a quote or a pep talk, is what finally grows confidence that lasts.   Timestamps: (00:58) - You Don't Need Confidence to Start, You Need Evidence (02:29) - Why Confidence Grows From Real Data (03:30) - How Your Brain Is Always Collecting Proof About Who You Are (06:03) - Confidence is Optional, But Courage is Commanded (08:07) - Practical Ways to Build Evidence Instead of Waiting to Feel Ready   WATCH ALLI  ON YOUTUBE   Links to great things we discussed:    Alli's Product Recommendation - LimonCello La Croix Wise Woman Era- Join Alli's Substack Start your Free 30-day trial of Uplift!

As parents, educators, and advocates for neurodivergent kids, it's crucial to recognize that traditional tests and assessments don't always paint the full picture of a child's abilities. In the newest episode of the podcast, we dive into why performance anxiety can create barriers—and how we can scaffold authentic, strengths-based ways for children to show what they truly know.   Key Takeaways: Performance Anxiety ≠ Knowledge Gap If a child can demonstrate understanding in low-pressure settings but "freezes" or melts down when assessed, it's not a lack of knowledge—it's the context and perceived safety that need adjusting. Accommodations Are Powerful, Not Coddling Thoughtful adaptations—like adjusting the environment, pacing, or method of response—help reveal rather than hide skills. These accommodations build confidence and resilience for future challenges. Celebrate Wins & Prioritize Safety Progress isn't always linear. Celebrate small victories and focus more on helping children feel safe and seen. Creating a foundation of trust leads to more voluntary engagement and authentic learning. If you're educating or supporting a neurodivergent or twice-exceptional child, remember: The goal isn't to recreate school, but to foster an environment where kids can thrive in ways that make sense for them.   Links and Resources from Today's Episode Thank you to our sponsors: CTC Math – Flexible, affordable math for the whole family!

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John challenges the idea that confidence is a feeling or belief you either have or do not have. He explores the importance of rebuilding the relationship with one's voice, focusing on functional behaviors that define confidence, and the role of attention control in singing. Confidence grows when you focus on what you do, not how you feel.   Episode highlights: The relationship with the voice often fails before the voice itself. Confident singers separate information from identity. Recognizing wins is essential for building confidence.   To learn more about John Henny, his best-selling books, on-line courses, Voiceschool.com featuring his Teaching Team of Experts, Speaker Training and the Contemporary Voice Teacher Academy, visit: JohnHenny.com

The Disability Confident Scheme is a government programme that aims to help employers recruit and retain disabled people. Organisations can volunteer to sign up and move through three tiers that have varying levels of commitments. As part of a series of measures to try to help with the recruitment of disabled people, the government are planning to overhaul the scheme and make certain criteria more robust. Minister for Social Security and Disability, Sir Stephen Timms tells In Touch about their plans.GBR Blind Sailing recently achieved great success at the World Sailing Inclusion Visually Impaired Championships in Oman. Lucy Hodges MBE is commodore of GBR Blind Sailing and nine-time World Champion and she, along with long-term sailor Vicki Sheen, tell In Touch about their success in Oman and about their aims to get more visually impaired people involved in the sport and to get blind sailing into the Paralympics in its own class.

We've had great guests on this week ahead of the Illinois vs Washington game, with a few people calling it a definite trap game. So how confident are YOU about tonight's game? We answer your texts at 217-359-2255. Have you seen ONE person agree with the decision to keep Bill Belichick out of the Hall of Fame? Neither have we. Evan got things back on track with Etched in Stone last night. He's got 3 new bets for tonight. Lets go!

Jason Kelce joins the 94 WIP Morning Show in-studio to talk about the 2025 Eagles season and how the current offseason is looking so far. He says that he is confident that the team will hire the right offensive coordinator who will do a good job next year. He also says it becomes a problem when an offense gets disjointed and everyone does their own sector. Rhea Hughes says that Jeff Stoutland is a well respected person within the organization so his demotion clearly meant the team thought there was a problem.

Ohio State's full schedule was released on Tuesday, complete with specific dates for each game. We already knew the teams the Buckeyes would play in 2026, so we were fully aware this was going to be a daunting slate. How daunting? Three teams that will begin the season likely ranked within the top-5 (at Indiana, at Texas, Oregon), two more that will be ranked within the top-15 (at USC, Michigan) and two more that will be ranked in the top-25 (at Iowa, Illinois). Whew, that's a doozy. However, Buckeye fans should still be confident about their team's chances in the 2026 season, and Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell explain why on today's show. We also get Steeler-fan-Bax's take on new OSU offensive coordinator Arthur Smith (we know Biddle likes the hire) and more. That is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

In this week's episode, we dive deep into demand avoidance—why neurodivergent kiddos sometimes just can't do what we ask (even when it's fun!)—and share a toolkit of practical strategies you can start using today. Whether you're homeschooling a differently wired kiddo or navigating daily learning resistance, this episode is packed with actionable tips, real-life examples, and mindset shifts to help your child build skills in a low-pressure way.   Key Takeaways: Lowering the Demand Doesn't Mean Lowering Expectations: There are ways to keep skill-building alive by focusing on autonomy, shared activities, and embedding learning into interest-driven projects—think Minecraft math or Pokemon writing prompts!

Friend, can I speak to you heart to heart about your body and your faith for just a moment? So many Christian women love Jesus, read their Bibles, pray sincerely — and still feel overwhelmed, discouraged, and stuck in their health journey. In this episode, I share five truths God had to teach me about treating your body like a temple — not a project to perfect. For a long time, I used fitness to try to fix what only God was ever meant to heal. So often, we bring our faith into every area of life — except this one. And yet, God cares deeply about how we steward our bodies, not from a place of perfection, but from a place of grace, wisdom, and trust. In this episode, you'll hear: Why fitness was never meant to fix your worth Why your body is not a problem to solve, but a handmade, uniquely designed temple to steward Why what worked before may not work in this season How to stop fighting your body and start partnering with God How to ask God for wisdom for the season you're in If you've been stuck in the cycle of: trying harder → feeling worse → starting over… this episode is for you. This is not about more discipline. It's about more grace. More wisdom. And learning to care for your body the way God always intended. Ready to Walk This Out With God? If you're longing for a faith-centered way to walk this out — not alone, not in confusion, but with wisdom and support…

In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions about confidence at work: the idea that if you just prepare enough, you'll finally feel ready to speak up. Today I'm teaching you why overpreparing doesn't actually help you feel stronger in the room, and what does. You'll leave the episode with a deeper understanding of what genuine confidence is made of, and how to access it without having to overprepare every time.

Get full show notes at www.consciousedge.com/ep091 If you've ever known you're good at what you do but felt a knot in your stomach when it came time to raise your prices or choose the right pricing model, this episode will bring clarity. Pricing challenges aren't about math or market demand. They're about how safe it feels to lead the pricing conversation. In this conversation, I'm joined by pricing strategist Shannon Mattern to unpack why so many women underprice their work and what actually needs to shift for pricing to feel grounded. This conversation reflects the kind of inner and strategic work we do inside The Conscious Edge—where clarity, nervous system safety, and leadership identity come first so strategy actually sticks. This episode is especially for service providers, consultants, and coaches who are tired of doing more to earn more and are ready to charge in a way that feels clean, calm, and sustainable.

In this episode of Golf Party Live, Donna and Brittney Boo break down one of the most important — and most misunderstood — parts of the golf game: the pre-shot routine. Inspired by a real-life moment on the course (we've all been there!), this episode dives into why having a consistent pre-shot routine matters not just for your game, but for your playing partners too. If you've ever felt rushed, unsure, or stuck over the ball — or played with someone who takes forever — this episode is for you. We talk about how a simple, repeatable routine can build confidence, improve consistency, and help you play faster and more enjoyably. In This Episode, We Cover: • What a pre-shot routine actually is • Why every golfer — especially beginners — needs one • How long your routine should really take • Why "waggles" matter (and what they actually are) • The difference between a waggle and a wiggle • Common mistakes beginners make before hitting the ball • How to create a routine that keeps you confident and fun to play with Whether you're brand new to golf or looking to tighten up your game, this episode will help you step up to the ball with clarity, confidence, and flow. ⛳️ Perfect For: ✔️ Beginner and intermediate golfers ✔️ Anyone who wants to speed up play ✔️ Golfers who want more confidence over every shot ✔️ Players who care about good etiquette and good vibes

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: Brad Stulberg is a bestselling author and leading expert on sustainable performance and well-being. He's written for The New York Times, Outside Magazine, and The Atlantic, and his previous books include Peak Performance and The Practice of Groundedness. His latest book, The Way of Excellence, is great. Brad's writing combines cutting-edge science, ancient wisdom, and stories from world-class performers to help people do their best work without losing themselves in the process. Notes: Never pre-judge a performance. When you're feeling tired, uninspired, or off your game, show up anyway. Remember the Beatles scene—they looked bored and exhausted, but Paul still wrote "Get Back" that day. You don't know what's possible until you get going. Discipline means doing what needs to be done regardless of how you feel. As powerlifter Layne Norton says, we don't need to feel good to get going... We need to get going to give ourselves a chance to feel good. Stop waiting for motivation. Start moving and let the feeling follow. Audit who you're surrounding yourself with. The Air Force study is striking: the least fit person in your squadron determines everyone else's fitness level. If you sit within 25 feet of a high performer at work, your performance improves 15%. Within 25 feet of a low performer? It declines 30%. Your environment isn't neutral... Choose wisely. Treat curiosity like a muscle. It's a reward-based behavior that gets stronger with use. When Kobe said he played "to figure things out," he was tapping into the neural circuitry that makes learning feel good and builds upon itself. Ask more questions. Stay curious about your craft. Excellence isn't about perfection or optimization... It's about mastery and mattering. It's about showing up consistently, surrounding yourself wisely, and staying curious along the way. To the late Robert Pirsig - one of the greatest blessings and joys and sources of satisfaction in my life is to be in conversation with your work. He's the author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance— "gumption is the psychic gasoline that keeps the whole thing going." Arrogant people are loud. Confident people are quiet. Confidence requires evidence. The neural circuitry associated with curiosity is like a muscle: it gets stronger with use. Curiosity is what neuroscientists call a reward-based behavior. It feels good, motivates us to keep going, and builds upon itself. Kobe didn't play to win. He played to learn and grow. Kobe Bryant said he didn't play not to lose, and he didn't even play to win. He played to learn and to grow. He said the reason he did that is because it's so much more freeing. If you're really trying not to lose, you're going to be tight. If you're really trying to win, you're going to be tight. But if you're just out there to grow, you're going to be in the moment. When you're in the moment, you give yourself the best chance of having the performance you want. The word compete comes from the Latin root word com, which means together, and petere, which means to seek, rise up, or strive. In its most genuine form, competition is about rising together (Caitlin Clark's story against LSU). Love: The Detroit Lions had just won their first playoff game in 32 years. Following the game was a scene of pure jubilation. During a short break from the celebrating, the head coach, GM, and quarterback all gave brief speeches. Which collectively lasted about 2 minutes. During those 2 minutes, the word LOVE was repeated 7 times. Homeostatic regulation -- Sense it in the greatness of others and when you're at your best. What Brad calls "excellence." Surround yourself with people who have high standards. When things don't go your way, when you're inevitably heartbroken or frustrated, it's the people around you, the books you read, the art around you, the music you listen to, that's the stuff that speaks to you and keeps you going. It keeps you on the path even amidst the heartbreak. Process goals work better than outcome goals for most people. If you're an amateur, you should be process-focused. When I train for powerlifting, I don't think about the meet that I'm training for. I think about showing up for the session today. If I think about the meeting, I get anxious, and my performance goes down. But if you're Steph Curry and you've been doing your thing for 20 years, you can think about winning the gold medal because your process is so automatic. For 99% of people, focus on the process. "Brave New World" turns fear into curiosity. When you walk up to a bar loaded with more weight than you've ever touched, there can be fear about what it's going to feel like. If you go up to the bar with fear, you're going to miss the lift. If you're convinced you're going to make it, you'll make it, but your nervous system knows when you're lying to yourself. The middle ground is curiosity. Instead of saying "that's heavy, it's scary," I say "Brave New World. I've never touched this weight before. I have no idea what's going to happen, but let's find out." It splits the difference. I'm hyped, I'm giving myself a chance, I'm not lying to myself, but I'm also not scared. Curiosity and fear cannot exist at the same time in the brain. There are seven pathways in the brain defined by affective neuroscientist Jaak Panksepp. Two of those pathways are the rage/fear pathway and the seeking/curiosity pathway. These pathways cannot be turned on at the same time. They compete for resources. It's a zero sum game. You cannot simultaneously be raging and curious. You cannot be terrified and curious at the same time. If you get into a mindset of curiosity, it's extremely hard to be angry or terrified. By being curious, we turn off the fear deep in our brains and give ourselves a chance to perform our best. Practice curiosity in lower-consequence situations first. Curiosity is like a muscle. If you're about to do something absolutely terrifying and you're really scared and you say, "I'm just going to be curious," you know you're lying to yourself. You have to practice in lower-consequence situations first. When you, as a paren,t get really upset with your kid, try to be curious about their experience. Watch your anger calm down. When you as a leader, have a board presentation where you're feeling anxious, try to have that mindset of "Brave New World." When you're an athlete going into a big game obsessing about what could go wrong, try to be really curious instead. The best competitors have emotional flexibility. As a competitor, you would know that in the confines of the game, you're not singing Kumbaya, you are trying to kill them. Then you have the emotional flexibility the minute that game ends to respect them as a person. That is the best way to compete. That's when our best performances happen. It's not either/or, it's both/and. It's playing really hard, giving everything you can for the win, seizing on your opponent's vulnerability, at the same time as having deep respect for them. You don't have to be miserable to be excellent. There are people like David Goggins or Michael Jordan who seem motivated by anger and a chip on their shoulder. But Jordan would put his tongue out like this primal expression of joy when he was about to dunk. And Jordan won all his championships while being coached by Phil Jackson, the Zen master of compassion. There are the Steph Currys of the world, or Courtney Dauwalter (best ultra marathoner to ever exist), or Albert Einstein (total mystic who had so much fun in his work). There are two ways to the top of the mountain. For 99.999% of people, you end up performing better with fun and joy, and you have so much more satisfaction, which contributes to longevity. The best leaders take work seriously but laugh at themselves. The best leaders I know in the corporate world, they take the work so seriously. They are so intense. But my God, do they laugh at themselves and their colleagues and have fun. Reflection Questions Brad says, "The things that break your heart are the things that fill your life with meaning." What are you currently holding back from caring deeply about because you're afraid of getting hurt? What would it look like to step fully into that arena despite the risk of heartbreak? The Air Force study showed that sitting within 25 feet of a low performer decreases your performance by 30%. Honestly assess who you're spending the most time with right now. Are they raising your standards or lowering them? What specific change could you make this month to shift your environment? Brad uses "Brave New World" to turn fear into curiosity before big challenges. Think of something coming up that makes you anxious. Instead of trying to convince yourself you'll succeed or dwelling on the fear, what does it feel like to approach it with pure curiosity: "I've never done this before. Let's find out what happens."

Feeling called to coach but still questioning whether you're actually ready to do this?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down the three non-negotiables every coach has to master if you want to feel confident in sessions, trust that you can actually help your clients, and build a coaching business that makes real money—not just one that looks good on Instagram.   So many women doubt themselves not because they aren't capable, but because they don't yet have the structure, skills, or reps that create real confidence. Today, I'm giving you a high-level look at the three foundations I see in every successful coach—and why skipping even one of them is what keeps so many people stuck in fear, imposter syndrome, or overthinking every session.   Resources Mentioned: The Confident Coach Certification is the ONLY certification specifically for divorced moms who want overcome imposter syndrome and finally feel legit: https://products.ambershaw.com/the-confident-coach-certification   What I Discuss: 05:29 The Three Cs of Coaching Mastery 07:02 Why confidence isn't something you "think" your way into, and how it actually comes from knowing your role as a coach and leading sessions with presence. 09:57 Structure, skill, and why winging it in sessions is the fastest way to lose trust in yourself and your clients 12:56 How practice, repetition, and real feedback create the kind of certainty that makes coaching feel calm instead of terrifying 17:17 How these three Cs are the foundation of the Confident Coach Certification and what it really takes to feel prepared, grounded, and legit as a coach Find more from Amber Shaw: Instagram: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Deirdre Nero discuss:Action can precede clarityGrowth requires delegation, not enduranceAuthenticity strengthens leadership and trustExpertise must be valued to be sustainable Key Takeaways:Starting a firm without certainty can still create momentum and direction. Waiting for perfect readiness delays growth more than risk does.Handling every task personally creates a hard ceiling on scale and sustainability. Hiring support is the necessary step to move beyond survival mode.Hiding core aspects of identity fractures credibility and connection. Openness creates deeper trust, healing, and stronger professional relationships.Giving away high-level knowledge undermines both business viability and professional worth. Confident pricing is essential for long-term independence and freedom. "I think honestly that was probably the biggest crime I committed in my firm… trying to do it all myself." —  Deirdre Nero Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Very few things in the life of the believer is more difficult than waiting on God. Waiting on him singularly, patiently, confidently and in a state of rest. I believe this message will be one of not only encouragement, but one of insight into the difficulty and glory of waiting on the Lord.

Have you ever believed God can… but struggled to trust that He will? Today's Living God's Way Devotional is an invitation into now faith — not surface-level faith, not outcome-based faith, but faith rooted in love and trust in who God is forming you into. These short Saturday devotionals are created with prayer to help draw you back to God, anchor you in truth, and remind you that you don't have to do life alone. You can do this with God. In this devotional, we talk about: What Scripture really means by now faith Why faith without love quietly becomes self-centered The difference between fear-driven faith and love-rooted faith How to trust God in the process, not just for the outcome What it looks like to believe God is working in who you're becoming, not just what you're praying for You'll be reminded that: Faith doesn't deny reality — it sees beyond it Faith doesn't wait for proof — it rests in devotion Faith rooted in love trusts God right now, not "someday" This episode is a pause — a moment to quiet your heart, release control, and choose trust even when the path feels unclear. Scriptures mentioned: Ephesians 3:20 Hebrews 11:1 1 Corinthians 13:2 Galatians 5:6 1 John 4:8 Matthew 9:29 If this devotional spoke to you, it reflects the same heart behind the Fit God's Way 30-Day Transformation — a faith-inspired path that helps you build godly habits so your life reflects who you are in Christ.

In this Saturday episode, AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay welcomes Dr. Kathy Koch back to the podcast as a returning guest to talk about ways we can raise gender-confident girls in a world steeped in confusion. Even when the culture tells us that Scripture is antiquated and oppressive, girls can embrace the clarity, purpose, and peace God offers us through His Word—a solid foundation for both Patti and Dr. Kathy in this conversation.    Dr. Kathy shares about her new book Raising Gender-Confident Kids, co-authored with Dr. Jeff Myers of Summit Ministries.     Dr. Kathy courageously describes the intention behind the book with Dr. Jeff Myers to embolden parents to push back and say 'no' to a deceptive notion of transitioning kids to different genders by altering their physical bodies. Patti draws out the direction of the book's title—gender-confident rather than gender-confused. Dr. Kathy unpacks the joy behind this theme by rooting a family's confidence in God first and then trickling down to a girl's understanding of her gender. Patti recalls her mother's phrase, 'God doesn't make mistakes.' This led the discussion to understanding God as the Potter at the wheel designing and crafting our bodies with perfect intention and meticulous care.    Dr. Kathy shares her personal journey as a girl learning to embrace things about herself that she previously ached to change, then under her mom's wise leadership shifting her thinking to love the unique facets of her body's design. From her height to her voice, Dr. Kathy shares wisdom, joy, and hope for girls struggling with their body's design.     Dr. Kathy offers precision in regard to gender confusion, settling that it is loving for a parent to correct confusion in gentleness and love. Patti and Dr. Kathy address the notion of labels that has changed drastically over the last 50 years in western cultures. To calm the strife, Dr. Kathy guides listeners to celebrate both the strength and softness of a girl's femininity rather than letting culture guide our views. Through the lens of a Biblical Worldview, Dr. Kathy teaches ways to let Scripture guide a girl's understanding, both with quoted chapter and verse as well as values of the Bible woven into daily conversations. Dr. Koch and Dr. Myers' book includes conversation starters so parents have a helpful launch-point when issues come up.     Scriptures Shared in this Episode:    Genesis 1:27  Isaiah 64:8  Psalm 139:13-14    For more information on Dr. Kathy's work, visit: celebratekids.com   Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.    Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.   

Author Matt Smith joins me to discuss his book written with Doug Casey and Maxim Smith - The Preparation: How To Become Competent, Confident, and Dangerous (fhttps://a.co/d/fFYvFOj).

If you're ready to care for your body from who you are in Christ, not pressure or comparison, Start Your Fit God's Way 30-Day Transformation ➞ https://kimdolanleto.com/fitgodswaycourse Before you scroll any further, let me ask you something: When you think about 2026… who is God actually calling you to become? So much of what we're taught about the new year focuses on doing more, proving more, or becoming "better." But Scripture shows us a different way — one where identity comes before action, and listening comes before striving. In This Episode I'm inviting you to set aside a moment for Christ-centered clariy. Doing this each year has become an anchor for my soul. I'd love for you to join me in this annual practice of listening and surrender, helping us trade the 'hustle and performance' of new goals for the peace and direction only He provides. We talk about: Why the urge to "become enough" often comes from insecurity, not confidence The difference between proving yourself and becoming who God calls you to be How Scripture reframes identity, approval, and obedience Why stillness is not passive, but a powerful act of faith If you've been consuming more than you're communing… If you've been striving instead of listening… This episode is for you.

Author Matt Smith joins me to discuss his book written with Doug Casey and Maxim Smith - The Preparation: How To Become Competent, Confident, and Dangerous (fhttps://a.co/d/fFYvFOj).
