The Confidence Chronicles

Are you impatient? Constantly worrying about if and when all the things you want will come true?  I know it always makes us so excited to think about our dreams becoming a reality in the near future. But the common problem that many of us have is we tend to become impatient.  In today’s episode, I’m sharing the correlation between self-belief and impatience. Maybe you’re impatient because you don’...

ATTN FEMALE COACHES! This episode is for YOU! In today’s episode, I am digging deep into the 3 big reasons why many coaches don’t create the IMPACT, INFLUENCE, or INCOME they truly desire.  Loving bitch-slap alert - said with love as you need to know these if you want to get results happening in your coaching business.  I’m also sharing a behind-the-scenes of what I’ll be teaching inside of my new...

Most people will usually have something that they want to achieve or something that they wish to happen in the near future.  But to make it a reality,  you need to exert your effort and spend enough time doing your work.  Of course, you can’t just wait all day and see all of your dreams come true right in front of your eyes.  It means that there’s so much work to do before you can see the results...

Is there a part of your life where you struggle with being more authentic?  Like you want to be real to yourself and to all people around you.  This is a huge topic that I have heard for so long from different women.  So I had to speak about it.  Because I believe there’s a problem with the question: “How do I become more authentic?” There are a number of things that are behind that question.  Tha...

Ok this is a big one for me.  Yes Erika “the Queen of CONFIDENCE” lost her confidence?!  Yup. I did. Hard!  I recently got Covid and damn…COVID took my confidence.  I mean, I completely lost my confidence. I even lost my sense of self. I got so scared, anxious, and depressed.  It was truly a great challenge for me and I literally felt like a prisoner of my mind.  Until I reached the point when I r...

The past couple of years has been one hell of a ride for most of us - without a shadow of a doubt the pandemic has shaken up and changed lives all around the globe. And since none of us saw this coming,  we all had very different experiences and were impacted in many different ways.  You've probably heard me say to look for the gold nuggets hidden in the pile of s@it !   And the gold nuggets hidde...

With all of the Five C’s that we’ve discussed in the previous chapters of this audiobook sneak peek,  I can bet that you’re ready to reframe your mind around how you want to think, who you want to become, and what you want to create for yourself.  Now, it's really over to you. It means that what comes next is completely up to you. It may sound scary but I know you got this.  Keep in mind that ever...

The fifth step of the Five C’s is the snowball stage of the practice. It’s CONTINUE. The idea with this practice is that you don't stop moving through it.  It means that CONTINUE is about having a commitment to move, grow, and evolve in a consistent way.  So the key here is for you not to stop.  It’s because the more you stop moving, the more time will be wasted, and the more that nothing happens...

It always doesn’t feel good at all when you see yourself as a failure.  You may get discouraged and it eventually doesn’t make you want to go and move forward.  However, you need to try again. Whenever you fall, you got to get your ass back up and do it again.  It’s because if you do, it will significantly help you build your resilience. It transforms you into a person who doesn’t care about falli...

To create is imperative when it comes to practicing confidence, besides the other five C’s discussed in the previous chapters of this audiobook.  It is the step that will truly move you towards achieving your goals and you become resourceful and innovative.  So when you create, you look for effective ways to make things happen. It means that you get to create the opportunity, solution, and a way t...

Courage is crucial in creating your confidence. And it also goes hand in hand with choice. It means that the moment you make an important decision in life, it needs a lot of courage to do so.  But it doesn't come to you unless you actually do the thing you are most scared of.  In fact, that’s what defines the word courage. It makes you feel nervous and freaked out, but you still take the move no m...

Before you live a life with confidence, you need to acknowledge the fact that you have choices.  You have the choice to do what you want or not do what you don’t want.  But the big question is: What kind of choices are you making?  Do they help empower you to step out of your comfort zone and build the life you truly desire or do they keep you in fear, avoiding the opportunities you've dreamed of?...

I can imagine that you know that the road to being confident is not easy.  It’s not about being beautiful with shiny red lips and stilettos while walking across the room and all eyes are on you. It’s not about getting all of the attention from the people around you.  It’s way more than that. In fact, being confident doesn’t necessarily require you to be good-looking, bold, loud, or outgoing.  True...

I’ve met and worked with so many women over the years who have spent their entire lives being worried about what other people think of them. And for a very long time, I was one of them. There’s nothing wrong when you care what other people think of you because it’s what most human beings do and it's perfectly normal. But the big problem is when you allow their opinions to penetrate your mind and h...

“I can do this…..Everything is fine….I am totally ok…” Any of this familiar? To tell you the truth, this was definitely my reality for many, many years.  I only found out that it had something to do with creating a confident mindset.  It means that you can choose how you want to react to a particular situation. It’s because your thoughts will create your feelings and that will have a great impact...

I'm so obsessed with doing the workaround transformation. My whole life has been a perfect example of that.  The woman I was many years ago is truly unrecognizable compared to the Erika of today. That’s why I want to share with you a little bit of my story because I may know what you’re going through right now… I know what it's like to doubt yourself and feel like you're not good enough. It’s also...

Being confident requires so much hard work.  And the journey to get there is an absolute rite of passage that knows no boundaries when it comes to feeling embarrassment, shame, discomfort, fear, and self-doubt. You name it!  But when you create your true confidence, you are able to get into a space where you keep a hundred percent of your power to choose what you believe, how you feel, and how you...

Can you believe it? Few days until Christmas.  It's a different holiday season this year, no matter where you are in the world, I think we've all been impacted by the pandemic and what's going on.  Here in Australia, it's pretty hectic because things are opening up. Everybody's going to be hanging out, shopping and doing all the things but for us this year, I feel like the more this goes down, the...

Sista, this episode is HOT. I’m pumped UP!  If you’ve been blessed with a good life and you think you’re not messed up enough to work on yourself, this episode is for YOU.  A lot of women say to me that they don’t have enough trauma to work on themselves.  But you don’t need some crazy shit to have happened to you for it be trauma. We have ALL experienced trauma.  Trauma isn’t the thing that happe...

Shout out to all you women out there pursuing your business.. even if your partner thinks it’s just a hobby! When I first started my business, my husband didn’t believe I could do what I’m doing now.  It wasn’t because he didn’t believe in ME. It was because we had two kids and he knew how risky it would be to start a new business. If you’re in the same boat, my bet is you’re feeling frustrated, l...

Are you investing in yourself?  I don’t mean buying handbags and getting your nails done. I mean, are you investing in your mindset, your behaviour, and your thinking? Are you investing in healing your trauma? Because NOT investing in yourself is actually costing you. It’s costing you time, money, and above all, happiness.  If I didn’t spend money investing in myself to work through my shit, I wou...

I’m currently throwing myself into Gabor Mate’s training to delve deeper into myself and find my Aha moments.  Today was a big one.  When I was five years old, I would visit my Mum in a psychiatric hospital. I was forever looking around and observing ways the staff could improve the way they treated patients and my Mum.  Even as a little kid I had an attitude - even more than I have now. I was con...

I can’t wait for you to hear this episode.  I am talking with the absolute best humans and hopefully one day my new neighbours! Haha! Meet Josee and Alicia. These amazing ladies have both struggled with their weight. Tried all of the diets and followed all of the rules. BUT none of them worked long-term.  Sound familiar? But why didn’t they work?  Because they were not creating their own way to ac...

Do you get triggered?  Do you feel out of control or explosive in response to someone else’s actions?  Today, I wanted to share with you what I’ve been learning with the incredible Gabor Mate. I’ve created an amazing space inside the Sistahood where women can be truly vulnerable and share their stories but my therapy friends kept warning me over and over that the women might get triggered by this...
