In this weeks Confidence and Self Esteem podcast I discuss my thoughts on 2019 and my plans for 2020. I talk about videoing my podcast, 15 minute video's for Instagram (I then find out that I can only record 90sec max!) Most of all, I discuss not putting off until the new year what you could be doing today! In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or ha...

I dug myself a deep hole today! I referred to myself as 'average'. Is there such a thing? In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get slightly out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself and I'm no different when it comes to this. I'm certainly not prepared to hide behind some carefully edited recording! S...

I recorded this episode around six months ago. It's quite a reflective episode today. Been thinking about it for a while and had made a few notes. I had a lot of issues the last few weeks with my team and the more I review the reasons why the more I realise it's down to how they are being managed......by me! In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or h...

I don't even want to talk about it. It becomes frustrating just thinking about it. If you googled 'DIY podcast' and have come here looking for advice or tips - you are in the wrong place. I hate DIY, I don't have the right tools, knowledge or passion to be any good at it. Oh, and it's killing my confidence. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or ha...

"Fake it until you make it." They say. To be honest, I knew it all along and that just makes this weeks revelation even more frustrating. I don't know why i don't think like this more often. In this weeks episode I'll be asking less about who you currently are and more about who you want to be. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased...

In the whole scheme of things, this may not be that particularly important and if you thought this you would be right. However, this has really annoyed me and affected my confidence. But why? In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get slightly out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself and I'm no differe...

The title of this weeks show kind of gives away what we are talking about. That's right, we are expecting twins, but how does, and how will this affect my confidence and self esteem? In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get slightly out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself and I'm no different when i...

Is this the worst day I've ever had? Maybe it's just the worst day I've ever had at work? In this weeks show I discuss something I recorded a few days earlier.

In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you...

I asked if anyone wanted to be a guest presenter on this show. Lucie was the first (of many) to reply. In this weeks confidence and self esteem podcast Lucie talks about her own experiences of using everyday life to help her increase her own confidence and self esteem. If you want to guest-present a show yourself, I am always looking for new people so get in touch. In true Confidence and Self Este...

Trusting the 'experts'. They know what they are talking about right? Or do they? Have the time, we trust an expert for no other reason than we don't know better. This week i was put in a situation where I could have listened to someone who knew their stuff, but I choose to ignore. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; y...

Two completely different half's to todays show. (Mainly because one was recorded in the morning and the other around 8hrs later!). Look, none of us are perfect, but when some of us are willing to try - others see it as an opportunity for an excuse and thats not what confidence and self esteem is about. If you want greater confidence, you need to work for it. In true Confidence and Self Esteem styl...

It's an interesting concept isn't it? Because a company rejections your application, it doesn't mean you need to accept their decision. In this weeks confidence and self esteem episode I talk about teenager who didn't take no for an answer when she applied for a job. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get...

I'm certainly not...

I had an email this week from a listener who said she wanted to improve her personal branding and wanted to know where to start. I am by far an expert on the subject, but over the years this has affected my confidence and self esteem as I have often questioned whether i am on the right path. Today I share my thoughts on how to get started. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looki...

We talked a few episodes ago about creating good habits and the fact that we should be starting off small and making sure we work on this at least 5 times a week. This show is a prime example of why it's important to start small and then build. To some people, this episode may seem a little boring or insignificant, but for those who are regular listeners to this podcast, you will realise that I am...

Humans are creatures of habit. It therefore makes sense we look at this in more detail. If we have good habits, we move forward and improve. If we don't - we stand still or even worse deteriorate. In this weeks confidence and self esteem episode I'll be looking at how we can create good habits and even more importantly - keep them up long term. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are...

I'm unsure if this weeks episode's ('At the Car Wash' & 'Explaining At the Car Wash') episodes are a little poor, unhelpful or simply rubbish (your opinions welcome???), but either way I've thrown in a third episode this week just in case. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get slightly out of your comfor...

Was that last episode me being creative or just pure crazy? Either way - I try and explain the theory of why I recorded it the way I did. Love it or hate it - you know you are getting me raw and unedited. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more confident or have increased self esteem; you have to get slightly out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself and I...

Is this simply a true reflection on my life, or is it podcast suicide? This week i record an episode in a car wash. Yes, you heard right. I'm in a car wash recording a podcast. May be it's because it was the only 5 minutes i had to my self that week, or may be it's because I'm not organising my time as well as i could. In true Confidence and Self Esteem style; if you are looking to become more con...
