Description

Do you ever hold yourself back because you’re afraid to speak up — or worried what people will think?


Today’s guest, Teri Holland, knows that fear well. Once nicknamed “Mouse” for how quiet she was as a child, Teri has transformed into a confident speaker, coach, and top 1% podcaster.


We trace her journey from a shy little girl whispering to her parents, to a coach who has given a TEDx talk and helps others use their voices with courage and confidence. 


Teri shares:



  • How a single solo line in a Christmas concert changed everything

  • What acting taught her about safety, scripts, and control  and how she learned to be confident without them

  • How burnout and illness led her to the world of NLP, hypnotherapy, and timeline therapy

  • The story behind starting her podcast, Success in Mind — and what happened when imposter syndrome shut it down at its peak

  • What it really takes to build confidence and transform self-doubt

  • How courage and confidence are skills we can all practice and grow


🎧 This conversation will remind you that courage and confidence aren’t fixed traits, they’re muscles we can build. Teri proves that success isn’t about perfection—it’s about a fulfilling life fueled by growth, grit and courage.
