b'How to Build Self Confidence\\xa0\\nThis week your spiritual besties are taking on the topic of self confidence. Whether you\\u2019re overly confident or tend toward lack of confidence, we hope you\\u2019ll join in. If you\\u2019re anything like us, you might vacillate wildly between the two. Or better yet, feel like both at once. Are you the most amazing piece of dumpster trash in the whole world? Or an egomaniac with an inferiority complex? Yay, you\\u2019re amongst friends!\\nWe\\u2019ll start episode 33 by sharing about the ways we used to try to get self\\xa0confidence from outside ourselves. While it\\u2019s a natural place to turn for good feelings, we also found that it\\u2019s not a reliable one. Ultimately, trying to get good feelings about ourselves from the outside-in left each of us\\xa0feeling worthless\\xa0and thinking thoughts like,\\xa0\\u201cI\\u2019m not good enough.\\u201d\\nEven though it seems like we\\u2019re all born with natural confidence, we forget what we\\u2019re truly capable of. This happens because of our early relationships with caregivers, difficult life experiences, and feedback from the people or society around us.\\xa0\\nIf this sounds familiar, you might have a persistent internal voice that tries to undermine your confidence. Or maybe you struggle with a pervasive feeling that you\\u2019re just not enough. What can we do when our life experiences have gotten in the way of\\xa0our natural belief in ourselves\\xa0and our innate belonging?\\nLearn To Believe in Yourself\\nLet\\u2019s reclaim our real selves and learn to treat self confidence like the inside job it really is. We\\u2019re learning to meet these\\xa0feelings of inferiority\\xa0with powerful\\xa0spiritual tools. Want to learn how to believe in yourself and tap into your inner strength? These tools are for you.\\nWe\\u2019ll share the ways we\\u2019re building the kind of self confidence that comes from within ourselves. Do you need some help learning how to like yourself and the person you are today? We\\u2019ll talk about how acting with courage and integrity allows us to trust ourselves, take more risks, and feel safe even when we mess up. We\\u2019ll focus on how taking responsibility for ourselves means we are\\xa0building an intimate and trustworthy relationship with our insides.\\nIt turns out there\\u2019s a link between self confidence and humility. We agree with people when they say that humility isn\\u2019t thinking less of yourself; it\\u2019s thinking of yourself less. Living from the inside out means we\\u2019re connected to our internal guidance systems. When we spend time inside our own bodies, use tools like\\xa0meditation and self-awareness\\xa0to get to know ourselves, and practice believing that we can trust ourselves, the results are incredible. What if believing in yourself is just the absence of negative thoughts about yourself? Join as we practice getting to know who we really are inside and loving the person that we\\u2019ve found!\\nWe\\u2019re always looking for more tools, so please reach out and share yours with us.
