In my work I help people with confidence every single day, whether that’s a long-term challenge, a temporary blip, or a boost that’s needed for something specific.
And in doing so, I’ve discovered the triggers for confidence challenges, the tactics for masking them, and the hidden link to burnout.
Undoubtedly, low self-confidence has a knock-on effect to your professional potential, enjoyment of life, energy, and resilience.
In this book, I’ve shared simple but effective strategies for building long-lasting confidence, so that you can realise your potential and save your energy for pursuing what’s important to you.
Confidence challenges are more common than you think, and when self-confidence falls, so too does our personal potential, fulfilment, and wellbeing. It’s a common problem … that we don’t seem to like talking about.
There’s also a link to the likelihood of experiencing burnout, because the tactics adopted to mask and manage low confidence are stressful and hugely energy consuming, leaving our reserves low and exhaustion high.
Rather than an endless busy mind, always second-guessing oneself, and feeling tired all the time … imagine being free of from the shackles of self-doubt, realising your true potential, enjoying more energy and resilience, whilst also protecting yourself from burnout. It is possible, and it is within your reach.
In this book Deborah shares her insights from helping people to believe in themselves, overcome challenges, and achieve their dreams. She includes simple strategies to help you boost your confidence with immediate impact.
Everyone deserves the confidence to pursue what’s important to them. Including you.
I’m Deborah – an award-winning executive coach, strategic advisor, and Amazon bestselling author.
Three years after writing Have It All Without Burning Out, I found myself returning to a theme that kept surfacing in my coaching work. Confidence.
Not just in leaders who were struggling – but in accomplished, capable, high-performing leaders too. It ebbs and flows with experience, change, and pressure in ways that can catch any leader off guard.
The more I sat with that observation, the more I noticed something else: a persistent link between low confidence and the risk of burnout.
It made me reflect on my own experience – and realise that confidence deserved its own book. Consider it the chapter I wished I’d included the first time around.
If you’ve read Have It All Without Burning Out, this sits perfectly alongside it. And if this is where you’re starting, it stands completely on its own.
