This is a Fan Fav episode. What up, my homies! It’s your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome right back to the Women of Impact podcast, where we call out the BS, build our confidence, and go after the life we freaking deserve. If it’s your first time vibing with us, what up, my homie? If you’re a returning OG, I’m SO freaking grateful you’re here—let’s level up together!

Today I’m bringing you something raw, real, and probably the kick in the butt you need to drop the fake confidence act and step into your honest, badass self. We’re diving into another electrifying Instagram Live Q&A where I break down how to embrace your confidence without crossing over into cocky territory—and trust me, we get super real about what that means, how to draw the line, and why you never have to dull your shine for anyone.

This episode is jam-packed with:

Practical confidence-building strategies
Setting boundaries (especially when people comment on your body)
Navigating the difference between real confidence and bravado (and why sometimes you need to fake it till you make it, guilt-free)
Forgiving yourself, letting go of needing anyone else’s validation, and stepping into a whole new version of you—at ANY age.
