About this listen
If “just be confident” has never worked for you, this episode will. We break down how confidence actually works in your brain and body—and give you five practical tools to use before and during high-pressure moments (public speaking, interviews, competitions, tough conversations). You’ll learn box breathing to switch off fight-or-flight, embodied cognition (power stances) to signal safety, reframing self-talk that doesn’t feel fake, visualization that sticks, and a system of small wins to build real confidence over time. We also share a raw MRI story about panic turning into calm in minutes.
You’ll learn:
What’s really happening when anxiety spikes (amygdala vs. prefrontal cortex)
A 60-second box-breathing drill to steady your nervous system
How posture and body language create confidence (not just reflect it)
Simple reframes that turn “nervous” into “ready”
A step-by-step visualization routine that boosts performance
How to stack small wins so confidence shows up on game day
