The Confidence Within: How to Stay Grounded and Trust Yourself in the World

Wisdom For Working Mums

Have you ever felt like life is pulling you in a million directions, leaving you disconnected from yourself? For many of us, especially as women, the demands of work, family, and society's expectations erode something essential: self-trust. It’s that inner knowing that helps us make decisions, set boundaries, and claim the life we deserve. Without it, we’re left doubting ourselves, apologising for our needs, and sacrificing our well-being. When we trust ourselves, we reclaim our time, energy, and purpose. We show up with clarity and confidence, not just for ourselves but for those we care about most. In this episode, motivational psychologist Meg Trucano and I explore why self-trust is so vital and how we can begin to rebuild it, one intentional step at a time.
