In this episode of the Spark Good Podcast, host Stephanie Malon-Rufi explores what it really means to "do it scared"—to take bold action even when confidence is nowhere in sight. Drawing inspiration from a weekend of meaningful experiences, Stephanie unpacks how these moments reveal powerful truths about entrepreneurship.
She dives into the psychology of confidence, including:
Why confidence is a skill and not a prerequisite.
The Confidence Loop framework: how action, not belief, leads to results and growth.
Albert Bandura's Self-Efficacy Theory and four key sources that help you believe in yourself.
The vital role of community, encouragement, and commitment when taking risks in business.
If you've been waiting to feel more confident before launching, promoting, or making a big move in your business, this episode is a reminder: confidence grows after the leap.
