But Melissa shares a different approach: your daughter doesn't always need you to fix it—she needs you to be with her in it.By choosing connection over correction, parents can create emotional safety that builds real confidence. Resilience doesn't grow from having every problem solved. It grows from feeling deeply loved, supported, and understood—even in the messiest moments.Tune in to discover:Why presence is more powerful than problem-solvingHow to support big emotions like self-doubt and comparisonSimple ways to foster emotional safety at homeHow staying steady helps your daughter build inner strength and self-trustThis episode is a gentle reminder that you don't have to fix everything to raise a confident girl.

In this week’s episode, I continue my four-part series on the core pillars of success for women in business. This week I’m focusing on mindset. Mindset isn’t about fixing yourself or forcing positivity. It’s about how you navigate your inner world when things wobble…. because they will! Especially when you’re holding a lot. I explore why mindset work is particularly critical for women, the subtle ways self-doubt shows up at leadership level, and how seemingly harmless thoughts can quietly stall momentum if left unchecked. We talk about the difference between a normal mindset dip and a full-blown spiral, why resistance often appears right before growth, and how resilience is the real skillset founders need to cultivate. I also share practical reflections on rest, boundaries, self-coaching, and why fun and pleasure are often the missing strategic levers in high-performing women’s lives.

In this powerful Voices of Celebration episode, Gail shares an honest and deeply personal journey from chronic self-doubt to grounded self-confidence. For years, self-doubt shaped how she showed up in her marriage, her divorce, and her relationship with herself. Fear of conflict, second-guessing her decisions, and a lack of self-trust left her feeling small and uncertain about her future. What makes Gail's story especially compelling is not just what she healed — but how she did it. She speaks candidly about how coaching provided something she hadn't found elsewhere: practical strategies, real-time awareness, and tools that changed her behavior, not just her understanding. Instead of revisiting the past, she learned how to engage differently, interrupt old patterns, and rebuild confidence from the inside out. One of the most powerful moments in this conversation is Gail's realization that the outcomes she feared most never came true. Rather than confirming her worst beliefs about herself, divorce became a turning point — a doorway to clarity, self-trust, and a deeper relationship with herself. This episode is a celebration of growth, courage, and the possibility of real change.

Episode Overview In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, Michael sits down with Ryan to explore one of the most persistent and underestimated leadership challenges: negative self-talk. The conversation centers on Ryan's newly released book on self-talk and team leadership, a seven-year project co-authored with Rhett Power and Susie Burke. What began as a belief that leaders could “defeat” negative self-talk evolved into a far more practical and honest conclusion: negative self-talk cannot be eliminated, but it can be managed. This realization shaped both the content of the book and its symbolism, including a cover that reflects the fragile, ever-present nature of our internal dialogue. For leaders navigating pressure, responsibility, and visibility, this episode reframes self-doubt not as a personal failure, but as a leadership skill gap that can be addressed with awareness and structure. Cracking Negative Self-Talk in Leadership Michael and Ryan unpack how internal dialogue directly influences leadership behavior and team culture. Leaders often assume they must project certainty at all times, but unresolved self-doubt frequently leaks into decision-making, communication, and trust. Ryan explains that the “monsters” of self-doubt live in every leader's head. The difference between effective and ineffective leadership is not the absence of these thoughts, but the ability to recognize and manage them before they shape actions and culture. For corporate leaders, founders, and people managers, the book's insights offer a language for understanding what is happening internally and why it matters externally. The Hidden Cost of Negative Self-Talk The discussion highlights how common negative self-talk truly is. Ryan references research suggesting the average person has roughly 6,200 thoughts per day, with the majority skewing negative. Left unchecked, these thoughts create a constant undercurrent of exhaustion, hesitation, and overthinking. Michael connects this to what he sees in burnout-driven leadership environments, where overthinking becomes normalized and decision fatigue spreads across teams. Leaders who struggle internally often unintentionally create cultures of second-guessing and fear. Recognizing negative self-talk is positioned not as self-indulgence, but as a leadership responsibility. Fear, Cognition, and Leadership Performance Fear emerges as a central theme in the conversation. Michael and Ryan explore how fear directly impairs cognitive performance, narrowing thinking, reducing creativity, and slowing decision-making. Ryan introduces the concept of “Edimentals,” a practical framework for addressing fear and negative self-talk. The process focuses on identifying the issue, understanding the internal “worry war,” and applying a three-step method: Catch the fear as it arises Confront it with clarity and logic Change the narrative before it drives behavior Rather than treating fear as weakness, both emphasize the importance of normalizing it. Leaders who acknowledge fear openly create safer, more resilient teams. Authentic Leadership in Times of Crisis Michael shares a personal story from the early days of the pandemic, when he abandoned a traditional reporting-style team meeting in favor of a human-centered conversation. Instead of metrics and updates, the focus shifted to personal challenges, uncertainty, and shared experience. That spontaneous decision became a turning point in building psychological safety and trust. The lesson was clear: authenticity in leadership is not a soft skill. It is a stabilizing force, especially during uncertainty. Leadership, Courage, and Human Connection The episode closes with a broader reflection on leadership and courage. Drawing from insights from Ryan's podcast, The Courageous, the conversation reframes courage as honesty rather than bravado. Both agree that sustainable leadership requires balancing strategy with humanity. Taking care of people is not separate from performance; it is the foundation of it. When leaders feel safe to be real, teams perform better, communicate more clearly, and navigate pressure with greater resilience. Listeners are encouraged to explore Ryan's work and resources for deeper guidance on courage, self-talk, and leadership under pressure. Key Takeaways Negative self-talk cannot be eliminated, but it can be managed Leaders' internal dialogue directly shapes team culture Fear reduces cognitive performance and spreads quickly through teams Normalizing fear builds trust and psychological safety Authentic leadership strengthens performance, especially in crisis Ryan shared his work through Courageous and inviting listeners to learn more at hedamentals.com and RyanBerman.com.

In this conversation, I talk about what it feels like to hit rejection and closed doors in your creative work, and why that moment is not a verdict on who you are. I share how easy it is to spiral after a no, a ghost, a decline, or a door that just will not open, and I reframe it like this: a closed door is information. It is feedback. It is not identity. It is not proof that you are behind, unqualified, or "not called." We also walk through how to interpret closed doors through a Kingdom lens. Sometimes a closed door is protection. Sometimes it is redirection. Sometimes it is simply timing. And instead of forcing what is not opening, I encourage you to slow down and discern. I give practical next steps for navigating rejection without collapsing into it, including trusting God's timing, using peace as a guide, and doing fruit tests to confirm whether a path is producing what it should. The goal is not to pretend rejection does not hurt. The goal is to keep your footing, stay faithful, and keep moving with wisdom.

What If Self-Confidence Isn't the Answer and Self-Trust Is What You've Been Missing? Most people think the opposite of self-doubt is confidence. In this conversation, Dr. Shadé Zahrai completely flips that belief on its head. She is a behavioral researcher, bestselling author of Big Trust, and one of the most insightful minds I've ever sat down with when it comes to understanding why high performers still struggle with anxiety, overthinking, and that constant feeling of not being enough. I'll be honest, her work challenged some of the things I've taught for years, and that's exactly why this episode matters. We dive deep into why waiting to feel confident is keeping so many people stuck and why self-trust always has to come first. Dr. Zahrai breaks down the four core attributes that shape how we experience doubt, including acceptance, agency, autonomy, and emotional adaptability. She explains why doubt isn't something to eliminate, but something to rise above by strengthening who you are underneath it. If you've ever felt like an anxious overachiever who keeps pushing but never quite feels settled, you're going to feel seen in this conversation. One of the most powerful parts of this episode is how expectation bias quietly shapes your reality. Dr. Zahrai shares fascinating research that shows how the scars you believe you're carrying can completely change how you experience conversations, relationships, and opportunities, even when those scars are not real. We also talk about why validation from achievement, praise, or external approval is one of the most dangerous traps high performers fall into and why it leaves so many successful people feeling empty. We also get extremely practical. Dr. Zahrai walks through tools that actually work, including how to stop obsessing over outcomes, how to quiet the inner critical voices that sabotage momentum, and why self-forgetting through service is one of the fastest ways to restore confidence. I also share a technique from her book that has already changed how I deal with worry, and if you're someone who struggles with anxiety or rumination, this alone is worth listening to the episode. This conversation is not surface-level motivation. It's real inner work. If you've ever felt stuck between who you are and who you know you're capable of becoming, this episode will give you a framework to rebuild trust in yourself and move forward with clarity and peace. Key Takeaways Why self-trust always comes before confidence and action The four core attributes that protect you from self-doubt How expectation bias shapes your relationships and results Why obsession with outcomes erodes self-belief A simple daily practice to reduce worry and overthinking How to quiet your inner critic without forcing fake positivity Listen now, and start building the kind of trust in yourself that no setback can take away. Max out.

Jen and Matt Rhodes discuss the concept of the "parking lot moment," where individuals hesitate to commit to personal growth due to internal conflicts. They share a story of a new club manager whose client left her debit card and delayed starting a 16-week transformation package. The hosts emphasize that such moments often stem from deeper issues like self-worth and identity rather than money or time. They highlight common excuses like "I don't have the money" or "I don't have time" as surface-level and stress the importance of self-investment. The episode concludes with a call to action for you to address your self-worth and take the first step towards personal growth.Listen In!Thank you for listening to this episode of Ignite Your Impact!As referenced in the show you can visit our website at phenixmethod.comJoin our Private Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/phenixmethodbodyandlifestyletransformations for lifestyle transformation hacks that the pros use.

Most people struggle with self-doubt, comparison, and feeling unworthy, especially when it comes to sharing their faith or stepping into their calling. In this episode, Andy Steiger chats with Ed Newton, pastor of Community Bible Church, in San Antonio Texas. Ed's unlikely background and struggles with confidence became the foundation for a thriving ministry and his new book, "Why Not You?".

If you've been dating for a while and you're starting to feel tired, discouraged, or quietly wondering why this seems so much harder than it should be, you're not imagining things. Modern dating can wear people down, the endless swiping, first dates that go nowhere, the emotional energy it takes just to stay open and hopeful. Many of the people I work with start to doubt themselves, not because anything is wrong with them, but because the process itself is exhausting. In this episode, I'm joined by Tim Molnar, a dating coach and former sociology professor, to talk about dating burnout recovery and how to approach dating with more clarity, intention, and emotional steadiness. Instead of pushing harder or checking out completely, we explore how to date more thoughtfully,  in ways that protect your mental health and help you stay connected to yourself along the way. We talk about why modern dating mental health struggles are so common, how swipe culture and endless choice can distort decision-making, and why so many good people end up feeling depleted rather than excited. Tim shares a research-backed, intentional dating strategy that helps you make better decisions sooner, reduce emotional drain, and focus your energy where it actually matters. If you've been trying to date without losing yourself — your values, your peace of mind, or your sense of hope — this episode offers a calmer, more grounded way forward. As you listen, you might reflect on this question: What would change if dating felt less like a test of your worth and more like a process you could approach with intention and self-trust?

When your coaching business feels too hard, it's rarely just about strategy.In this conversation (a follow-up to Episode #115), Ruth Saville, Alex Whitton and Robbie Swale explore three of the biggest pressure-points coaches face as they try to stay in the work for the long game: self-doubt, money, and the quiet temptation to question everything when things feel wobbly.Together, we talk about:Self-doubt: how it shows up, why it's so persistent, and what helps you stay grounded (including building your own evidence bank of impact)Tactics and alignment: the difference between “hard because it's growth” and “hard because it's avoidable suffering”Money pressure: why financial scarcity affects how we think, and how simple, practical actions can bring steadiness backStaying in the game: creating systems that help you keep moving even when you're tired, overwhelmed, or questioning your pathThis is an episode for coaches who want to keep going - without pretending it's easy, and without needing to take themselves quite so seriously along the way.And if you'd like support with all of this - building the business and staying human while you do it - you can explore The Coach's Journey Community here: https://www.thecoachsjourney.com/communityListen to Part 1 of this conversation: https://www.thecoachsjourney.com/podcast/115-what-do-you-do-when-your-coaching-business-feels-too-hardDownload Robbie's ebook, An Introduction to The Coaching Business Flywheel, here.For more information about Ruth, visit https://www.ruthsaville.co.uk/For more information about Alex , visit http://www.exploregrowbe.com/For more information about Robbie, visit https://www.robbieswale.com/Read more about The Coach's Journey at www.thecoachsjourney.com.Music by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.

“I'm going to be the best basketball player I can ever be and I'm also going to be the best father that I can ever be.” Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum sits down with Ryan, Channing and Fred for a raw, wide-ranging conversation that goes far beyond the headlines and boxscore. Tatum opens up about battling through injury, the moment he nearly walked away from the game, and the mental toll that comes with carrying expectations at the highest level. Recently returning to the court for rehab and light work, the 6x time NBA All Star and World Champion opens up on how the last year has been the toughest in his life, admitting self-doubt, questioning his will to heal and contemplating his return this season. Winning a title with Celtics etched his name in Boston royalty, although the high expectations still move him to chase the legends who've come before him while his focus remains on getting back to a championship. Jayson was upfront about working through past growing pains with Jaylen Brown, the pressures of being a face of the NBA and the three words Joe Mazzulla whispered to him during the biggest moments of their Championship run. A self-proclaimed mama's boy, he shares a deep understanding of sacrifice, hard work and how growing up with little motivated him being raised by a single mom but candidly he opens up on why he values the relationship with his father differently but still a bond he appreciates. With the anniversary of Kobe Bryant's passing, Jayson Tatum reveals how he was inspired by the icon and modeled his life based on certain experiences and explains why he is completely appalled with anyone questioning Kobe's contributions to the game. He reflects on representing Team USA in 2024 on the Olympic stage, what that experience taught him, his true in-the-moment feelings with Steve Kerr and how it reshaped his perspective as a leader but also as a man. From embracing the weight of Boston's historic legacy to navigating fatherhood while still chasing greatness, Tatum shares how his humble beginnings continue to ground him. Honest, reflective, and powerful—this is Jayson Tatum like you've never heard him before.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Self-doubt is often mislabeled as a confidence problem, which causes people to hesitate instead of act. The real cost is momentum, because confidence is built through action, not something you wait to feel before moving. We dive deeper into this in the Habits & Hustle with Dr. Shadé Zahrai. We also chat about why high performers still experience self-doubt, the ping pong ball vs golf ball analogy for detaching from doubt, and why self-image drives behavior more than motivation. Dr. Shadé Zahrai is a behavioral researcher and peak performance educator with a PhD in organizational behavior. She has designed and delivered programs for Fortune 500 companies including Google, Microsoft, LVMH, JP Morgan, and McKinsey. Her work has reached millions through LinkedIn Learning, TEDx talks, and global leadership programs. What We Discuss: (03:10) Why the opposite of self-doubt isn't confidence but self-trust (08:42) Why high performers still experience self-doubt and act anyway (14:25) The ping pong ball vs golf ball analogy and how doubt becomes identity (21:30) Why affirmations backfire when the brain doesn't believe them (28:55) How self-image shapes behavior more than motivation or discipline (36:40) The scar experiment and why we experience reality through expectation (44:15) Why saying yes too quickly damages self-trust and decision quality (01:21:26) How your partner's dependability and discipline shape long-term career success Thank you to our sponsors: Prolon: Get 30% off sitewide plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-Day Program!
