If you live with CPTSD, confidence can feel like something other people have — a steady self-assurance that seems impossible for you. You know you are capable, but in moments that matter, self-doubt takes over, your voice disappears, and your nervous system pulls you back into old survival patterns.

In this episode of the CPTSD Medicine Podcast, I share a grounded and practical tutorial on what real confidence actually is and how to begin cultivating it today. You will learn what confidence feels like in the body, how to recognize the trauma patterns that disguise themselves as humility or caution, and how to rebuild trust in your own strength and perspective.

In this episode you’ll learn: ✦ The difference between trauma-driven confidence and authentic confidence ✦ How to identify the parts of you that still believe being on your own danger ✦ What embodied confidence looks and feels like ✦ Practical steps to rebuild a sense of worthiness

Confidence is not a performance. It is the natural byproduct of internalized safety, a secure internal attachment to yourself, and the knowing "I am okay no matter what."
