This episode is the 1st in a 2-part series about what it really means to feel safe when you're navigating uncertainty. Here, I lay out the foundation for a transformative approach to confidence by introducing the concept of emotional safety as an internal state you can build through self-trust, not something you must wait for or earn through external validation.

You'll hear:

• What emotional safety really means—and how it fuels autonomy and deliberate decision-making

• Why self-trust isn’t about certainty, but about how you relate to yourself in moments of doubt

• The brain science behind your fear of uncertainty and why your nervous system might be sounding a false alarm

• How social conditioning and marginalization shape your experience of risk and self-doubt

• The key differences between coaching and therapy—and how coaching helps build forward momentum
• Why changing your circumstances isn’t enough if you don’t also change the way you think and feel about yourself
