Reclaiming Confidence with Paula Jenkins & Julie Houghton

Midlife Schmidlife

Liz Applegate, Paula Jenkins and Julie Houghton have a continued conversation around confidence. As life coaches, they've noticed that in their own lives and in working with clients, a lack self-confidence is something that constantly comes up during times of transition. Confidence just seems to be the bottom layer of so many places where we can get stuck.

What’s also special about this episode is it’s actually part 2 of a conversation that we started yesterday over on the Jumpstart Your Joy podcast with Paula, on episode 132. So if you haven't done so already, be sure to check out that episode.

In this episode they discuss:

• How confidence can be a sign post into what is import to us.
• Tuning into where our lack of confidence shows up can actually be the start of regaining your confidence.
• How the “shoulds” and good girl rules can affect our confidence at work and in our lives.
• How gender roles can play a role in how we show up.
• How we can begin to pay attention to how our body responds to confidence plus ways we can use our bodies to maybe shift the lack of confidence we are feeling.
• How aging can affect our confidence and finding confidence mentors.
