What if confidence isn’t something you have—but something you build?
In this episode, we break the myth that confidence is a fixed personality trait. Melissa explores the real psychology behind self-trust, why your confidence grows in spirals (not straight lines), and how to stop waiting until you “feel ready” to start showing up.
You’ll hear how confidence is less about being fearless and more about building a relationship with yourself—through micro-moments of bravery, choice, and repetition. Plus, you’ll get a gentle nervous system regulation tip and a guided journal prompt to help you reconnect with your self-worth and move forward… even when it feels wobbly.
✨ You’re not broken. You’re becoming.
