647: Confidence is a muscle, not a personality type

from My Daily Business Podcast · host Fiona Killackey

Confidence isn’t something you either have or you don’t. In this Quick Tip episode, Fiona challenges the idea that you need to feel confident before taking action, and explores why confidence is actually a skill built through repetition. From putting up your prices to showing up on camera, pitching yourself or speaking in public, it’s often doing the uncomfortable thing that creates confidence, not the other way around. You'll learn: Why confidence is a skill you can build rather than a fixed personality trait How taking small, uncomfortable actions can make bigger moves feel more manageable over time A simple way to start doing the thing you’ve been putting off because you don’t feel ready yet Need help with your own business strategy, impact, visibility or personal brand ?
