The Confidence Question

from Women Who Lead Change Hosted by Michelle Johns

The confidence conversation isn't wrong. Many of us do need to back ourselves more. But it's incomplete. It places responsibility on individuals while leaving systems untouched. So this week, I invite you to reflect: Where have you seen the "confidence gap" narrative play out in your career—in ways that helped, or in ways that obscured deeper issues? What's one thing your organisation could do differently to create a level playing field—not just for confident women, but for all women? And if you're willing to share: When have you stretched into something you didn't feel ready for, and surprised yourself? Come find me on Instagram @womenwhochange.official. Send me a DM. Let's continue this conversation.
