In this episode, Elle Russ breaks down how confidence got turned into a weird public performance where being loud, unfiltered, and constantly visible is treated like proof of self-worth. Elle talks about:
- Why confidence isn’t the same as boldness, oversharing, or visibility
- The difference between performance confidence and real, internal confidence
- Why silence can be powerful (and not a sign of weakness)
- How to actually choose your battles instead of reacting to everything
- The truth about filters, aesthetics, and why presentation doesn’t equal insecurity
- Why confidence is built through action - not waiting until you “feel ready”
This isn’t about being the loudest person in the room or proving anything to anyone. It’s about self-trust. Boundaries. And showing up on your own terms without needing permission.
