Description

Confidence isn’t one thing, it’s many. There’s confidence in your expertise, confidence in being visible, confidence in your new identity, and even confidence in speaking your truth.


In this episode, Maya breaks down three things she often finds herself saying to clients about confidence. From treating confidence like a muscle you can train, to understanding how external factors (like a disengaged boss) can chip away at your self-belief, she reveals what truly helps high-achievers rebuild confidence that lasts.


You’ll also hear why fluctuating confidence is actually a good sign, one of self-awareness, not weakness and how to reframe imposter syndrome as a useful inner signal rather than an enemy to silence.


You'll Learn

  • The three types of confidence every high-achiever needs
  • Why confidence is built through doing, not waiting
  • How toxic dynamics (or poor managers) quietly erode confidence
  • Why confidence naturally fluctuates and why that’s normal
  • How imposter syndrome can reveal valuable self-awareness
  • A small communication tweak that signals confidence instantly
