Sit back and treat yourself...
Sue Reid explains the difference between confidence and self-confidence, emphasising that self-confidence is about how you feel inside and accepting yourself, and provides practical steps to build it by understanding triggers, journaling, and celebrating achievements.
Sue described many examples and practical steps to take, here's one - "Mindful confidence involves staying as long as you feel comfortable in social situations, setting achievable goals like having one conversation, and engaging in simple social interactions to build comfort."
We also shared thoughts on "Imposter Syndrome" and how it relates to self-worth and confidence.
When asked what people could do to make a start Sue believes in building from existing positives in our lives, "Create a list of all your achievements, from learning to walk to passing exams, to remind yourself of your capabilities when self-doubt creeps in."

Confidence Matters -
A conversation with Sue Reid of Confidence Matters
The Positive Echo
Gary Coulton and Carl Munson will discuss what it takes to leave a "Positive Echo" wherever we go.
Gary's late father Harry asked him shortly before he died, "Gary, who do you want to come to your funeral and what was it you did for them that made them want to come?"
This is not about being nice to everyone. It is about giving people something they can grasp and make a better life with. Maybe a conversation or something done on their behalf.
We will investigate legacy not only one after we have died but whenever we leave a phone call, a meeting, a relationship, a job, career or we retire. Other people may know when we do something or it may be invisible but still hit the mark, like leaving money for someone's coffee.
We will interview people who have left their Positive Echo, asking them why they do it and what they wanted from it. We invite listeners to contribute by telling us about their heroes (famous or not) and the Positive Echoes they left within them.
In uncertain and volatile times we need to understand how to leave our Positive Echo as an antidote to the chaos.
Come join us to make our brew!
