Struggling to lead with confidence? You’re not alone. Whether it shows up as micromanaging, burnout, or saying yes to too much, a lack of confidence can quietly undermine even the most capable leaders.

In this episode, Angela and Sami sit down with leadership strategist and speaker Therese Gopaul-Robinson for a powerful conversation about what confidence really is—and why it’s way more than just a personal mindset issue. From micromanaging and burnout to team culture and career growth, Therese unpacks how low confidence shows up in our leadership—and what to do when it’s holding you (and your team) back.

Whether you’re leading a company, a team, or your own life, this conversation will challenge how you think about confidence—and give you practical steps to build more of it.

💡 What We Talk About:

• What low confidence really looks like in leaders (hint: it’s not what you think)
• Why female leaders often feel overwhelmed—and how to stop over-working
• What micromanaging says about your own insecurities
• Confidence as a muscle: why it’s built through trying, not knowing
• How to delegate with trust instead of fear

📘 What You’ll Learn:

• Why leadership success starts with inner work, not outer authority
• How to break the cycle of proving your worth through overwork
• Ways to model confidence for your team—and your kids
