We’ve all heard the advice: “just be confident.” But what if confidence isn’t about being louder, extroverted, or faking it until you make it? What if real confidence is about feeling safe enough in your body to trust yourself, speak up, and lead authentically?In this episode of the Heal & Manifest Podcast, host Cynthia Flores is joined by Michelle Seijas, Trauma-Informed Leadership Coach & Speaker, for a powerful conversation that redefines confidence as a practice rooted in nervous system regulation, self-trust, and inner safety.Together, we explore:⭐ Why confidence is more than charisma or personality⭐ How your nervous system shapes self-doubt, fear, and leadership⭐ The cultural pressures women of color and first-gen leaders face around worthiness⭐ Practical daily tools to build confidence without burnout or performance⭐ The role of community, joy, and grace in sustainable leadership. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt or felt like confidence wasn’t “for you,” this episode will remind you: confidence isn’t something you’re born with, it’s something you can build by learning to feel safe in your own skin.💌 Connect with Michelle Seijas: IG: @thrivingchingonahttps://www.michelleseijas.com/ 🎙️ Follow the Heal & Manifest Podcast for more episodes on healing, self-worth, and leadership.✨ Let’s Connect!IG & TikTok: @cynthiafloreslmft📩 Collabs & Speaking: [email protected]🔗 Work with Cynthia: www.cynthiagflores.com#Confidence #SelfTrust #NervousSystemHealing #TraumaInformed #PersonalGrowth #WomenOfColor #FirstGenLeaders #LeadershipDevelopment #HealingJourney #PodcastForWomen #LatinaPodcast #SelfWorth #MentalHealthPodcast #AuthenticLeadership #ConfidenceTips
