What if courage has to come before confidence, not after? In this episode of Her Unshakeable Confidence, Simone and Olivia sit down with Stephanie Richardson, a public speaking and executive coach, certified world class speaking coach, and international best-selling author of The Power of Coaching, Volume 2. A former licensed professional counselor with a master's in psychology, Stephanie brings a rare mix of clinical training and real world grit to the conversation, sharing why comfort keeps more people stuck than fear does, how to take your next best step instead of waiting to see the whole staircase, and why reframing a negative thought with real evidence can change the story you tell yourself.✅ Actionable Takeaways Start Small: Take small, low-stakes risks. Confidence comes from reps, not from waiting until you feel ready.Find Your Next Best Step: You don't need the whole staircase mapped out. Just identify the one next step you're willing to take.Jump and Build Your Wings on the Way Down: You can learn as you go. Waiting to know everything before you move only keeps you stuck.Surround Yourself with People Moving Forward: The people around you shape what feels normal. Seek out relationships that push you, not just ones that feel comfortable.Catch and Reframe the Story: When a negative thought shows up, name it, flip it to the opposite, and back it up with real evidence.⏱️ Chapters 00:00 - Introduction01:19 - How Stephanie's Coaching Business Began02:33 - Counseling vs Coaching: The Rearview Mirror and the Windshield06:35 - Coaching vs Therapy: How to Know When It's Time for a Change12:48 - Small Risks and Finding Your Next Best Step17:10 - Surrounding Yourself with the Right People22:22 - Catching and Reframing Negative Thoughts24:36 - Understanding DISC and Communication Styles28:10 - The Best Advice from a Woman in Her Life29:24 - Closing Thoughts and Where to Find Stephanie✨ About Stephanie Richardson Stephanie Richardson is a public speaking and executive coach, a certified world class speaking coach, and international best-selling author of The Power of Coaching, Volume 2.
