In this episode of Thriving, I’m getting real about something most of us don’t talk about enough — the awkward, uncomfortable, and often cringe process of building confidence.

I open up about my journey of “faking it till I make it,” what’s worked, what hasn’t, and how I’m learning to be compassionate with myself instead of chasing perfection. From content creation to career moments to moving countries — confidence has felt more like a moving target than a destination.

If you’ve ever felt behind, not bold enough, or too embarrassed to put yourself out there, this episode is your gentle nudge: you don’t need to feel confident to start. You just need to start.
