Register for the webinar: GAINING CONFIDENCE IN WHO YOU ARE IN BUSINESShttps://writeyourownstory.co/webinar/p/youre-stuck-overthinking-every-moveits-time-to-act-with-confidenceFor so many women, there’s a quiet belief running in the background: I’ll do it when I feel more confident.I’ll launch when I feel ready. I’ll speak up when I’m sure of myself. I’ll go after the opportunity when I finally believe I can handle it.But what if that belief is the very thing keeping you stuck?In this solo episode, Betsy challenges one of the most powerful societal “shoulds” women carry—the idea that confidence must come before action. Through honest stories from entrepreneurship, motherhood, leadership, and life’s unexpected turns, she shares the perspective shift that completely changed how she approaches fear, self-doubt, and growth.Because here’s the truth most of us were never taught:confidence isn’t the starting point.Confidence is what grows after you take the leap.In this episode, you’ll hear about: • Why so many accomplished women still experience imposter syndrome • The real reason more preparation, experience, or certifications don’t fix self-doubt • How self-trust—not confidence—is what actually moves you forward • The simple shift that can help you stop waiting and start actingIf you’ve ever felt like you’re waiting to become the “confident version” of yourself before going after your dreams, this episode will change the way you see it.You don’t need confidence to begin.You just need the courage to start.Support the showConnect with Betsy:Website: writeyourownstory.coEmail: [email protected]: write_your_own_story_co Or betsyleoYoutube:writeyourownstorypodcastMore:SHOP MY AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/shop/write_your_own_story_coFEMALE FOUNDERS MASTERCLASS: https://writeyourownstory.co/ffa-coursesGET 10% OFF YOUR OURA RING:https://ouraring.com/raf/216ee90575?utm_source=user&utm_medium=iac_raf&utm_type=alwayson-cvr&utm_campaign=2025RAF&utm_variant=2025_raf_julyHUNGRYROOT:code: WRITEYOUROWNSTORY40https://www.hungryroot.com/?promo=WRITEYOUROWNSTORY40&b=1197&utm_source=write-your-own-story&utm_medium=influencer&utm_campaign=in-houseDONATE TO CINCY's CHILDREN HOSPITAL:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2270822/supportFLODESKGive your friends 50% off their first year of Flodesk and get $19 when they join!https://flodesk.c...
