LATEST EPISODE 🔗
Ever finish a perfectly ordinary workday feeling like you've run a marathon? You answered emails, sat through meetings, dealt with a few difficult personalities and somehow arrived at 5 p.m. with absolutely nothing left for the people or things you actually enjoy.
And the maddening part? You’ll pr…

AI is pretty damn seductive. Give it a problem and seconds later it has an answer. Something you don't know how to do? It can probably help. Need to sound smarter, work faster or figure out something that would've taken you half the day? Done.
But can it make you confident? I think it can, but the…
I talk all the time about how confidence is a choice- it’s the even the title of one of my books - so when someone comes along and says, “Okay, Alyssa, but are you sure it’s YOU whose actually the making the choice?” you better believe I'm listening.
Enter Paula Houlihan, fellow neuro nerd, execut…
You know that boss who needs to be copied on every email? Has to sit in every meeting? Somehow manages to take credit when things go well and locate someone else to blame when they don’t?
We need to talk about that person.

I don’t buy it. Sometimes “being resilient” sounds suspiciously like “suck it up and don’t let thi…
There are few things more frustrating than feeling unheard.
Not disagreed with—I can handle disagreement. I'm talking about when someone has already decided you're wrong before you've even finished your sentence. They interrupt you, dismiss you and they default "no." Before you know it, you’re que…
Hey. I need to clear something up, because we keep doing this and I'm going to lovingly call us all out: we're using the word confidence to mean about 47 different things and most of them are wrong.
We see someone dominate a conversation and think, "Wow, they're confident." Someone refuses to admi…
Ever meet someone who somehow made you rethink something you've believed for years?
That was Lisa Tahir for me.
We sat down to talk about confidence - as you do for a podcast about confidence - and somewhere along the way we ended up talking about forgiveness, old wounds, the stories we tell ours…
The older I get, the more I realize how much energy I spend trying to control things that were never mine to control in the first place.
Sometimes it's big things. The economy. My parents' health. Whether someone has the budget to say yes to a project. Sometimes it's ridiculously small things, lik…
