    401 | The inner work that unlocks real confidence feat. Alice Njoroge & Jenny Penner

    2026/2/10 | 35 mins.
    What if building confidence isn't about changing what you do, but instead about changing what's happening inside your head?

    In this episode, I'm talking with two Academy graduates, Alice and Jenny, about the inner work that actually creates lasting confidence. They share how learning to work with (not against) their inner critic changed everything, why perfectionism was holding them back, and how they went from overthinking to showing up as confident leaders.

    If you've ever felt like you need to have everything figured out before you speak up, or wondered if confidence is even possible for you - this conversation will fire you up.

    400 | How to start speaking up in high-stakes meetings

    2026/2/03 | 27 mins.
    If you've been trying to speak up more in meetings but it's just not happening - this episode will show you why.

     

    I'm breaking down the psychology behind why you stay quiet (even when you have something valuable to say) and what actually needs to shift for you to start speaking up with confidence.

     

    You'll learn the difference between permission-based speaking and value-based speaking - and why understanding this distinction changes everything about how you show up in meetings.

     

    This episode will help you see that forcing yourself to "just talk more" isn't the answer - and I'll show you what IS.

    399 | Escape the overpreparing trap: feel confident without endless prep

    2026/1/27 | 30 mins.
    In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions about confidence at work: the idea that if you just prepare enough, you’ll finally feel ready to speak up.

    Today I’m teaching you why overpreparing doesn’t actually help you feel stronger in the room, and what does. You’ll leave the episode with a deeper understanding of what genuine confidence is made of, and how to access it without having to overprepare every time.

    If you've been working hard to build your confidence but feel like you're hitting a wall, this episode will help you understand why - and more importantly, what to do about it.
