What if building confidence didn’t have to take years of practice, affirmations, or waiting for the “right moment”?

In this episode of The Life You Crave, I’m breaking down my favorite tool for creating confidence quickly: The Confidence Cycle. It’s simple, powerful, and it works—whether you’re trying to lose weight, crush it at work, or simply feel more at home in your own skin.

Here’s the truth: confidence isn’t about being perfect, it’s about learning to trust yourself. And the fastest way to build that trust is to decide, take action, reflect, and repeat. That’s it. Action builds evidence. Evidence builds trust. And trust builds confidence.

I also want to shine a light on something I see so often with women: self-betrayal. You know, those little promises we break to ourselves that chip away at our confidence. But here’s the good news—you can rewrite that story today by stepping into this cycle of action and reflection.

If you’re ready to stop doubting yourself and start showing up with the confidence you crave, this episode is for you. And if you want support, accountability, and a sisterhood of women who are walking this same path, come join us in my leadership community, The Fempire—because confidence grows even faster when you’re not doing it alone.
