About this listen

 Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of Life After Kids, Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne dive into the topic of building confidence at any stage of life. They begin by reflecting on how personal experiences and shared interactions with their audience shape the themes they explore. This episode centers around understanding confidence, distinguishing it from self-worth, and discovering practical strategies for fostering both. As Dr. Lynne puts it, "Confidence is a doing; it comes from action," emphasizing that building confidence involves more than just a mindset.

The doctors delve into two primary ways to cultivate confidence: keeping promises to oneself and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. By staying true to commitments, whether big or small, individuals can validate their capabilities and prioritize self-development. Moreover, the discussion turns toward the significance of taking risks and welcoming failure as an opportunity for growth. Dr. Brooke shares her personal journey of joining a challenging business group that enhanced her confidence, highlighting the importance of putting oneself in a stretch zone.

Key Takeaways:
  • Confidence Building: Confidence stems from keeping promises to oneself and consistently stepping out of comfort zones.
  • Defining Confidence vs. Self-Worth: Confidence is action-oriented, while self-worth is about inherent value; both are essential in personal growth.
  • Role of Faith: Finding self-worth through faith can be a powerful avenue for personal validation and confidence.
  • Growth Through Failure: Embracing failure as part of the success journey contributes significantly to confidence building.
  • Practical Application: Encourage your older children to find confidence by allowing them to navigate challenges independently, thereby gaining valuable life skills.
