What if confidence isn’t about being sure of yourself but taking action before you feel ready? In today’s episode, Kevin and Alan explain what confidence means and why it’s linked to feeling in control. Kevin shares a personal breakthrough from a recent speech, while Alan explains how confidence grows through experience—not before it. They also discuss the struggle between self-awareness and self-doubt, why some people overestimate their skills, and how true confidence develops over time.
