About this listen

If confidence feels like something you’ve lost since becoming a mum, this episode is for you. If you’ve been moving through motherhood feeling lower in confidence than you ever expected – second-guessing yourself, feeling like you’re “just surviving”, or wondering where you went, press play on this one. In this episode, Zoe is joined by confidence coach and founder of PepTalkHer, Dior Bediako, for a conversation that completely reframes what confidence actually is, especially in early motherhood. Dior shares why confidence isn’t about feeling fearless or having it all together, but about being willing to feel doubt, fear and insecurity… and still showing up. Zoe and Dior talk about how much motherhood asks of us internally, why survival is not a failure, and how the relationship you have with yourself quietly shapes your confidence, your choices and the example you’re setting for your children. This conversation is grounding, expansive and deeply reassuring, a reminder that you are not behind, broken or failing. You are becoming. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why confidence often dips in early motherhood – and why that’s completely normal A powerful redefinition of confidence that allows fear and self-doubt to exist How tiny, compassionate actions can rebuild self-belief when life feels overwhelming Why the way you speak to yourself matters more than doing motherhood “perfectly” If you’ve been hard on yourself lately, if your inner critic has been loud, or if you need permission to meet yourself with more kindness, this episode is for you.
