Description

Hey Everyone,

Welcome to the third installment of the Two Coach Confidence podcast. In today's episode we have the pleasure of being joined by Crossfit athlete and Coach, Lea Schmidt. Originally from Switzerland, Lea now lives and trains in Mexico with her husband and fellow Coach Luis Perez alongside their two two dogs. Lea is currently ranked the 113 fittest women on earth! Quite an extraordinary feat considering Lea has only been doing Crossfit for just 8 years!

In this episode we talk about,

• Not only Lea’s definition of confidence, but also that of her Mums. 
• How oftentimes confidence can be confused with being fearless.
• Lea shares with us how she became aware of parts of herself she wasn’t particularly happy with, and the work she has started to undertake to develop herself emotionally and mentally.
• We discuss how the more you begin to know about yourself, and what you think you know, the less you actually know.
• The importance of authentic belief in your own confidence, and why that’s an essential ingredient to achieving your goals.
• We explore the potential of confidence having three key elements, genetics, education and human interaction.
• Lea very openly and honestly shares her own perception of herself as an athlete in terms of confidence.
• How becoming caught up in time stress can greatly affect your ability to be confident.
• Lea shares her thoughts on the cultural differences she has seen in confidence between her original home location of Switzerland and her new home in Mexico.
• We discuss the potential connection between happiness and confidence.
• And towards the end of the episode Lea beautifully summarises her top 5 tips for developing confidence.

Lea shares her journey to date openly and honestly, and as you will hear is curious to learn more about this topic and question her own assumptions about her understanding of confidence. She was a pleasure to have on the show and we can’t wait for you to take a listen.

Please Enjoy!
