In this brief YouTube excerpt, two speakers discuss practical ways women can cultivate confidence. Speaker B advises leaning into intuition by testing small decisions—such as refusing a dinner invitation when the gut says no—to observe outcomes. The conversation highlights the value of saying "no" as an experiment in personal agency. Additionally, Speaker B suggests keeping a daily journal to record three moments, reactions, and insights, enabling women to notice patterns and build self‑awareness over time. The overall tone is conversational and supportive, encouraging listeners to try low‑stakes actions that reinforce confidence.

What is something that women can do to really start leaning into more confidence?
If you get an intuition about something, lean into it, try it out, see what happens. If you take the time and slow down for that moment and just try it for something small, it might be that you were asked to go out to dinner and you really don't want to, and your intuition is just saying, I.
Don'T want to.
Go. We all have done that. And, and, but we go anyway, and usually we have a good time. But maybe say no and see if something else happens. Another thing might be is to write it down, three things that came up for you that day and how you reacted to them.
And.
Maybe just keeping a journal about that, because you might notice some nuggets in that.
And if.
You are writing down, then you've got awareness to what you're doing.
