Building Confidence: Step Into Your Full Career Potential (Without Waiting to Feel Ready)
In this week’s Work It Like a Mum podcast, we’re sharing the second session from our Momentum Career Summer Series, designed to help women build confidence, take action and keep moving forward in their careers. Elizabeth Willetts is joined by confidence and career coach Lindsey Roberts, founder of Gold Digger Coaching, to explore why confidence isn’t something you wait for – it’s something you build through action. Together, they share practical tools to help you overcome self-doubt, challenge limiting beliefs and step into your full career potential. What we cover: Why confidence isn't a personality trait – it's a skill you can build. How fear of disappointing others keeps many women stuck. Practical techniques to challenge self-doubt and reframe negative thinking. Why waiting until you feel "ready" could be holding you back. Three simple confidence-building tools you can start using today. How taking small, consistent actions creates lasting confidence. Why your future confident self is built one step at a time. Key takeaways: Confidence grows through action, not before it. Your feelings aren't facts – challenge the stories you're telling yourself. Small, consistent steps build momentum and lasting confidence. Stop spending your confidence making everyone else comfortable. You already have more confidence than you realise – it's time to use it differently. Why listen:If you've ever doubted yourself, struggled to speak up, or felt like you're waiting until you're "confident enough" before making your next career move, this episode will give you practical tools to break the cycle, build confidence and take the next step with purpose.Show links:Connect with Elizabeth Willetts on LinkedIn hereConnect with Lindsey on LinkedIn hereVisit Lindey’s website here Boost your career with Investing in Women's Career Coaching!
