Ever walked off stage or out of a talk thinking, “I could’ve done better”?
I have.
I know I have.
And that Self doubt can Drown you.
I once spoke on stage, felt wobbly and disconnected — walked off thinking I blew it. I was so hard on myself I just pushed the whole thing to the back of my mind.
A few days someone said, “You were amazing doing your talk. I could never do that.”
And it took me a minute to understand...because I’d forgotten I even GAVE the talk.
That’s how loud self-doubt can be.
But here’s what helps me bounce back - instead of focusing on what I think I did badly, I change my focus.
These are 3 ways to handle this if you find it a challenge....
✅ Pick one thing you did well
✅ Watch it back like a coach, not a critic
✅ Say “Next time, I will…”
Confidence isn’t perfection — it’s practice.
