Growth Spurt: Confidence Comes After Action

In this Growth Spurt, Dr. Gabby Caviedes reframes a common misconception about confidence. Many people wait to feel confident before they act, but research shows confidence actually grows from experience. Drawing on psychologist Albert Bandura's work on self-efficacy, Gabby explains how confidence is built through small wins, tracking evidence, and repeating under pressure. Confidence isn't given; it's built through action and proof over time.
