The Quiet and Strong Podcast, Especially for Introverts Ep 260 - Mindful Confidence for Introverts with guest Louise Jefferies
Are you looking for practical ways to build authentic confidence as an introvert—without forcing yourself to be someone you’re not? In this week’s episode of The Quiet And Strong Podcast, host David Hall welcomes guest Louise Jefferies, an expert coach who helps introverted, empathic professionals find their voice and show up with genuine confidence, especially in high-stakes environments.
You'll will learn why confidence isn’t something you “hack,” but an emotion you can cultivate through a mindful approach, understanding your own strengths, and embracing your personality. Louise shares her powerful strategies for calming mental chatter, overcoming the urge to people-please, and setting healthy boundaries—especially for those working in another language or navigating demanding workplace cultures. Find ways to make visibility at work feel less overwhelming, and how conversation with your inner “mind chatter” can quiet self-doubt.
If you want to hear real advice from someone who has helped others overcome speaking anxiety, perfectionism, and the pressure to fit in, this episode will show you how embracing who you truly are leads to deeper confidence and effectiveness. Tune in for an inspiring conversation packed with insights you can use in your own life—and be strong.
