#68 Fix the Floor, Not the Fall
<p>Have you ever felt like your confidence is steady one day... and completely shaken the next?</p><p>In this episode of Project Confidence, I'm sharing an unexpected lesson from my own kitchen. For years, our dishwasher leg was balancing on a broken floor, and with the slightest bump would fall down, leaving the dishwasher uneven and the metal straining. It was a real pain to get back in place.</p><p>That's exactly what comparison does to our confidence.</p><p>We often try to manage the symptoms of comparison with positive affirmations, working harder, or avoiding situations that make us feel "less than." But if our sense of worth is resting on an unstable foundation, it only takes one comment, one social media post, or one success story from someone else to knock us off balance again.</p><p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p><ul><li>Why comparison creates fragile confidence</li><li>The hidden cost of continually managing self-doubt instead of addressing its source</li><li>How to identify the "uneven floor" in your own life</li><li>How to use the SOAR Method to replace comparison with lasting confidence through Appreciation, Inspiration, and Recognition</li></ul><p>If you're tired of feeling like your confidence keeps slipping, this episode will help you stop patching the symptoms and start building a steadier foundation.</p><p>Because real confidence isn't about never getting bumped—it's about standing on something that doesn't move.</p><p></p>

#67 - Why Should I Care What Jerks Think About Me?
<p>In high school, I sat backstage during play rehearsal listening to some of the starring boys loudly criticize the girls performing on stage. Curious—and maybe a little bold—I joked, “Wow… I wonder what you’d be saying about me if I was up there.”</p><p>Without hesitation, one of them answered: “What a big butt you have.”</p><p>That moment gave me all the feels you would think a teen would feel. But it also helped me realize how easily we hand our confidence over to other people, especially when they are rude. </p><p>In this episode, I unpack one of the most freeing questions I’ve ever asked myself:</p><p><strong>Why do I care what people like that think about me?</strong></p><p>We talk about:</p><ul><li>Why cruel opinions often reveal more about the speaker than the person being judged</li><li>How comparison and insecurity lead people to tear others down</li><li>The lesson my mom taught me about understanding people without excusing harmful behavior</li><li>The difference between someone having <strong>access</strong> to speak and having <strong>authority</strong> over your self-worth</li><li>How to stop giving influence to voices that don’t deserve it</li></ul><p>From high school rehearsals to social media comments to everyday comparisons, this episode is about learning to filter opinions instead of absorbing them.</p><p>Because not everyone who speaks about you deserves space in your self-concept.</p>

#66 - I'm Not Bad At This... I'm Just New At This
<p>In this episode of Project Confidence, Kathie explores the powerful difference between being “bad” at something and simply being “new” at it. So often, we label ourselves too quickly when learning a new skill, and those labels shape whether we keep going or give up.</p><p>Using a story about her daughter learning to rollerblade, Kathie shares how children naturally approach growth differently from adults. After falling over and over again, her daughter proudly announced, “I only fell like five times—I’m really good at this!” Instead of seeing mistakes as proof of failure, she saw them as part of learning.</p><p>Kathie dives into how the language we use affects the brain, explaining why thoughts like “I’m bad at this” can trigger avoidance and shutdown, while “I’m new at this” keeps us open to curiosity, practice, and growth. She also shares how her daughter later broke her wrist rollerblading—but still got back out there with a cast and a new pair of wrist guards, adjusting instead of quitting.</p><p>This episode is a reminder that confidence isn’t built by instantly succeeding. It’s built through repetition, small wins, resilience, and recognizing progress along the way. If you’ve been discouraged while learning something new, this conversation will help you shift your mindset, celebrate growth, and keep going.</p>
