Ep. 94: How Confidence Changes with Age
Episode description
The older we get the more confidence we are suppose to have, right? Well, kind of. Liz and Ashley discuss what their confidence looks like today and what it looked like in the past.
The girls discuss how although they have become more confident collectively the older they get, it has also become more complex. When we were younger we had to worry about confidence in how we looked, if our crush liked us, and if we were making JV or Varsity. Today, nearly a decade later, we feel much more confident and we don't really care if Josh from math class likes us back or if our outfit is cool or not. However, what we are self-conscious off can be a little more intense.
As an adult you may be self-conscious at where you are in life compared to your peers, how much money you make, if you are performing well at work, if you are not working at all, if you are in a relationship, if you are a good parent, etc. There are more opportunities to be self-conscious as an adult.
Liz and Ashley discuss what they do to become confident and how they have overcome some of the parts of life they used to really struggle with.
