Ep 61 – How to Overcome a Confidence Block, with guest Maribel Ortega

Here’s how to reframe ‘failure’ and bounce back from difficult challenges

Here’s a summary of what we are talking about today:

• Maribel shares her own incredible story of leaving a marriage and deciding to raise her young daughter by herself without knowing how she would do it
• She talks about the childhood-rooted need to ‘people please’, pushing back on unhealthy relationships and having boundaries
• The importance of reframing ‘failure’
• And how to start taking action, even if you feel fearful about the outcome

Here’s something that stood out for me in today’s episode:

“Without taking risks you don’t build confidence. Doing without worrying about the result also builds confidence.”  (Maribel Ortega, guest on ‘Her Ambitious Career’ Podcast)
