This episode explores what “confidence” really means in an age obsessed with self-esteem and certainty. Rather than treating confidence as strength, loudness, or unwavering belief, this talk reframes it as the willingness to act while fully accepting the possibility of being wrong. Drawing on everyday examples from work, politics, and self-help culture, the episode critiques performative confidence and exposes how apparent certainty often masks deep anxiety. True confidence, it argues, is quiet, flexible, and capable of revision. In an uncertain world, the ability to hold responsibility without clinging to absolute correctness becomes the most realistic and humane form of confidence.
