Episode Title: The Confidence Gap: Closing the Divide Between Your Value and Your Paycheck Guest: Jo Stone – Founder & CEO, The Balance Institute What happens when a high-achieving woman finally stops striving, pushing, and over-delivering… and chooses balance instead? In this powerful episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes award-winning executive coach Jo Stone, Founder and CEO of The Balance Institute, for an eye-opening conversation about confidence, leadership, and the systemic and internal barriers women face on their way to the top. After her own burnout wake-up call, Jo built The Balance Institute to help ambitious women reclaim their strength, clarity, and fulfilment—without sacrificing their wellbeing. By blending neuroscience, ancient wisdom, holistic practices, and community support, Jo now guides women to step into their brilliance while honoring who they truly are. In this episode, Jo shares why high achievers are so prone to imposter syndrome and self-sabotage, the hidden obstacles that keep women from breaking through the glass ceiling, and the untapped leadership potential that so many women overlook. She also explores why leading with feminine energy is not only empowering—but transformative. You’ll walk away with strategies for closing the confidence gap, redefining success on your own terms, and creating a career aligned with your value and vision. Some of the questions asked and answered include: What part of your personal journey led you to create The Balance Institute? Why are high-achievers particularly vulnerable to imposter syndrome, and how can they overcome it? What are the biggest obstacles holding women back from breaking through the glass ceiling—and how can they conquer them? How do women unknowingly self-sabotage their success and limit their potential? What untapped leadership potential do women often overlook? What does it mean to lead with feminine energy—and why is it a game-changer? How can women redefine success on their own terms, rather than society’s expectations? What changes need to happen in workplaces to truly support high-achieving women? This episode is a must-listen for women ready to rise, lead with confidence, and create a life they no longer have to compromise for.
