#5 The Confidence Myth: Why You Don’t Need to Feel Ready to Lead with Grace
Have you ever felt like you’re standing on the edge of something big—an opportunity, a dream, a calling—but your feet feel glued to the ground? You’re waiting for confidence to show up, but instead, doubt keeps whispering, ‘You’re not ready.’
My friend, I’ve been there. I know that feeling of hesitation, of wondering if you’re enough. But here’s the truth: confidence isn’t something you wait for—it’s something you *build*. And today, we’re going to shatter that myth and show you how to lead with grace, even when you don’t feel ready.
Confidence isn’t just about believing in yourself—it’s about believing in the One who created you. When you ground your confidence in God’s presence, you unlock a strength and courage that goes beyond self-doubt. In this episode, we’ll explore how faith, courage, and small, consistent steps can transform the way you lead, serve, and grow.
Through personal stories from ministry and coaching, Rev. Juliet unpacks the myth that you need confidence before you leap. Instead, she shows how courage, faith, and small consistent steps build real confidence over time.
