The Confidence Knock Still Affecting Your Leadership Career (And Why You're Still Carrying It)

Have you ever started doubting yourself because of something that happened years ago? Maybe it was a difficult boss. A promotion you didn’t get. A restructuring that left you questioning your value. Or perhaps it was a comment made in passing that somehow stayed with you long after everyone else had forgotten it. In this powerful opening episode of Season 2 of The Lucy Gernon Show, I explore a truth I see every day when coaching senior women leaders: Most women don’t have a confidence problem. They have a confidence wound. Drawing on my own corporate leadership journey and years of coaching women in leadership, I unpack how confidence knocks shape our behaviours, impact our careers, and quietly hold us back from the success, visibility and fulfilment we deserve. If you've ever felt like an imposter despite your achievements, struggled to advocate for yourself, or found yourself working harder than everyone else just to prove your worth, this episode will give you the mindset shifts you need to start rebuilding your confidence and reconnecting with your true value. 🎧 Tune in to Discover: ●Why most women don’t have a confidence problem, they have a confidence wound ●The corporate performance review that shattered my confidence ●The surprising ways confidence knocks continue to show up years later ●Why high-achieving women struggle to enjoy their success ●The mindset shift that helps you rebuild confidence and stop feeling like an imposter Links Mentioned: 👉 Get the Confident Leader Reset: 8 minutes designed to help you build confidence before important meetings, presentations, interviews or high-stakes conversations: https://academy.lucygernon.com/offers... 👉 Learn more about my professional development program 3SIXTY Leaders Club:https://www.lucygernon.com/3sixty/?ut... 👉 Listen to Avril’s inspiring story of rebuilding confidence, overcoming burnout and discovering that women leaders really can have success, balance and happiness: https://www.lucygernon.com/how-3sixty... 👉 Join our newsletter and get weekly leadership insights, mindset shifts, practical tools and behind-the-scenes lessons delivered straight to your inbox: https://www.lucygernon.com/newsletter...
