[309] Stop Letting Other People’s Fear Lead

from Self(ish) Confidence · host Jess Clerke

Someone hears your dream and suddenly it feels risky, unrealistic, or “too much.” That moment can look like advice, concern, or even excitement, but underneath it is often the same thing: projection. We’re talking about what happens when other people’s fears and “shoulds” get placed onto your choices, and how quickly that can shrink your confidence if you don’t have protection around your ideas.We also get real about social media comparison and information overload, because a five minute scroll can send you straight into the spiral of “Am I doing this right?” and “Do I need to change everything?” I share the boundaries that help me stop the loop, why I keep certain dreams private until they’re strong, and how community support can feel totally different when it’s built on safety instead of opinions. If you’re craving connection without the constant noise, I also share what we’re building inside the Selfish Sisterhood, with both in-person meetups and virtual calls.If this hits home, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a confidence boost, and leave a review so more women can find Selfish Confidence.Join the Self(ish) Sisterhood: $33/month or $333/year.Thank you for listening to Self(ish) Confidence!
