Send us a textScott Goldman, a high performance psychologist, breaks down what confidence really is—how it’s built, how it’s lost, and why it’s not as simple as people make it seem. We talk about how past wins help, but also how your environment and mindset play a huge role. He gets into why people struggle with confidence, how fear of judgment holds players back, and the difference between real confidence and just acting cocky. In the end, he drops some real advice on pushing past fear, embracing the struggle, and actually building the kind of confidence that lasts.If you want the FREE confidence building checklist: https://mailchi.mp/ed814bbda598/confidence-lmSupport the showProgress is the only Goal clotheshttps://beball-jones.myshopify.com/collections/allFollow the Podcast TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@beballjonespodcast Follow BeBall Jones on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and Facebook @BeBallJones Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beballjones/Twitter: https://twitter.com/BeBallJonesTikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdAFqYm9/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeballJones0Show some support for the showhttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2008789/supporters/new
