The Calm Confidence Podcast (Formerly the "Therapy on Tap Podcast")

You may not realize this, but by trying to "improve" your social skills, you are actually making your social anxiety worse. If you struggle with social anxiety you already obsess about how you come across, what you are saying, how you are saying it, etc. By trying to "improve" your skills, you actually exacerbate the obsessiveness. In this episode I will discuss how you can let go and finally find the freedom you are looking for. #socialanxiety #socialanxietydisorder #shyness #shygirl #shyguy Socials:https://linktr.ee/calmconfidence

We can't avoid judgement from others, so don't bother trying. Our attempts to avoid it only make our social anxiety worse and it won't stop the judgment from coming anyway. #socialanxiety #socialanxietydisorder #confidence #resilience #freedom Interested in getting in contact?https://charlesperrytherapy.com/Podcast link:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4EdDP9fkklpSaLZhMxPwVE?si=d819309608b54a6aApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/therapy-on-tap/id1758550585Instagram Link: Instagram.com/anxietyfreecpFacebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/charlesperrytherapy?mibextid=LQQJ4d

We're often taught that if we want to feel confident in something, we have to practice until we have mastered it. We believe that confidence comes from developing skills and constantly improving ourselves. While this is sound advice in certain situations, it does little in building long lasting, internal confidence. What do we do if we are learning something new? How can we feel confident in ourselves if confidence is only supposed to come through mastery? In this video I explore a simpler, yet deeper form of confidence. #confidence #confidenceboost #confidencebuilding #selfimprovement #wisdom #depression #anxiety Interested in getting in contact?For NY/NJ residents: https://charlesperrytherapy.com/For non-NY/NJ Residents: https://calendly.com/cperry0814/30minhttps://calendly.com/cperry0814/1-hour-coaching-sessionPodcast link:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4EdDP9fkklpSaLZhMxPwVE?si=d819309608b54a6aApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/therapy-on-tap/id1758550585Instagram Link: Instagram.com/anxietyfreecpFacebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/charlesperrytherapy?mibextid=LQQJ4d
