About This Episode
If you’ve ever replayed a conversation in your head at 2 a.m. wondering if you sounded “too much,” “too direct,” or “not nice enough,” this one is for you. I sit down with my dear friend Stephanie Greene, President of the Greater Michigan Construction Academy, to talk about the real work behind confidence: filtering outside voices without losing your empathy.
We dig into how people-pleasing can slowly distort your identity and why approval can feel like safety even when it is costing you your peace. Stephanie shares what it looked like to outgrow old versions of herself, how direct honesty gets misread by people who don’t yet know your heart, and why the “spotlight effect” makes us believe everyone is judging us far more than they are. Stephanie opens up about having a health scare and how stress and overwork forced a reset in priorities.
If you’re navigating change and feeling your confidence shake, you’ll walk away with clearer questions to ask yourself, stronger self-trust, and a more grounded way to lead.
Subscribe for more conversations on confidence and leadership, share this with someone who needs a healthier filter, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.
