In this episode, Tracey and Kev are joined by Charlotte Carter, a leading global high-performance mentor and transformation coach, to dive deep into the mindset shifts and emotional hurdles that often appear on the journey to driving confidence.

We chat about:

• The hidden layers behind driving anxiety, including fear of success, fear of failure, and fear of judgment
• Practical strategies for managing nerves, regulating your emotional state, and turning anxiety into excitement (“nerve-cited”!)
• How your self-identity and beliefs shape your driving journey—and ways to reprogram them for growth and confidence

While listening to this episode, ask yourself:

• What comes up for you around passing, failing, or being judged when it comes to driving?
• How does your sense of identity—learner, driver, or something else—affect your mindset on the road?
• What simple practice could help you feel safer and more empowered as you take each step towards driving on your own?
