Listen "The Confidence Code: 5 Keys to Unshakable Self-Belief"
Episode Synopsis
In this empowering solo episode of The Empowered Team Podcast, host Kari Schneider unpacks one of the most requested leadership topics: Confidence and why most of us are doing it wrong.
Using humor, a deeply relatable (and slightly humbling) story about weed-eating 😅, and the psychology behind the Dunning-Kruger effect, Kari breaks down the real journey of confidence from overconfidence and the Valley of Despair to sustainable self-belief.
You’ll learn:
Why knowledge alone doesn’t lead to true confidence
How overconfidence keeps you “stranded on Mount Stupid”
The 5 key elements that create lasting, humble confidence
What “cross-confidence” is and how to use it when you're in a new zone
Why serving others might be the ultimate confidence hack
This episode is a must-listen for leaders, entrepreneurs, and growth-minded individuals ready to shift from shaky self-doubt to solid self-trust.
🔑 Key takeaway: Confidence isn’t something you “get” it’s something you create.
