Mapping out the territory
Why coach yourself confident?
Doing the work


1 Fuel for life

What does confidence give us?

Better odds
A willingness to say YES
The trust of others
A collective power
The difference for you


How do we grow confidence?

The momentum of confidence
Feeling the fear and doing it anyway




2 The self-doubt tax

How self-doubt shows up

The inner critic
Words that sow the seeds of doubt
Nerves and butterflies


Counting the cost
Paying the self-doubt tax in missed opportunities

Holding back
Staying small
Slowing the pace
Leaving potential unfulfilled


Paying the self-doubt tax in overwork

Achievement addiction
Hero complex
Over preparation
Emotional exhaustion


Show yourself some compassion


3 The humble confidence benefit

Painting a picture
The humble confidence mantra
Right-sized self-doubt
Getting too big for your boots
Uniquely you
A paradox


4 Faulty calibration

A hall of mirrors
An uncertain grasp
Owning your strengths
Feedback through a filter
The highest of bars
The longest of lists


5 Confidence saboteurs

The inner critic
Comparisonitis
FOPO
Mindreading
Overthinking
Perfectionism
Fear of failure
Tiredness
Underminers


6 Comings and goings

A wobbly line
That so this
Steep drops
Bumps and knocks
Job changes
Free range confidence


7 Homegrown confidence

Confidence by proxy
Over-reliance on others

Borrowing confidence
People pleasing
Leaving ourselves vulnerable


Confidence in community

From borrowed to owned
Just enough support


Keeping up with yourself
Permission to be you


A few final words of encouragement
