059 Menopause and Confidence
Unlock Your Confidence with Clare Walsh
In this episode I’m opening up a conversation around menopause and confidence. It’s a topic that I’ve been speaking about a lot in my personal life and work but we haven’t touched on here. I asked myself why? Why have I not talked about something that has coloured my daily life for the last 18 months and is still causing me daily difficulties? It’s complicated is the short answer. Unless you’ve had your head in the sand over the last couple of years you will have heard the wider conversation that is finally taking place about menopause. And if finally dawned on me – or...

057 Introverted Brilliance - Harnessing Your Introvert Superpowers
Unlock Your Confidence with Clare Walsh
This episode, I delve into the topic of introversion, which is often misunderstood. Being an introvert myself, I can relate to the confusion surrounding this trait, and I've noticed that many of my clients also identify as introverts. Unfortunately, society tends to view introversion negatively and often implies that extroversion is the only path to success and happiness. In this episode, I would like to dispel some of these misconceptions and showcase the superpowers that introverts possess. This episode we'll cover: What introversion truly means and doesn't mean Ways to support yourself and...

054 Are You Celebrating Other Women or Tearing Them Down?
Unlock Your Confidence with Clare Walsh
This episode goes live the day after International Women’s Day and as a coach specialising in helping women with their confidence I wanted to focus particularly on women this episode.

This episode we’re going to explore some of the issues around how we treat each other, especially in the world of work and look at ways that we can make...

053 How's Your Self-Worth?
Unlock Your Confidence with Clare Walsh
Over the last fifty plus episodes we’ve covered lots of topics to help us lead happier, more confident lives so it surprised me when I realised that we have never talked about today’s topic – self-worth. We’ve covered topics related to it but never looked at it on its own so that’s what we’re going to do today. Why? Because in my work with a counsellor after I finished cancer treatment it became apparent that I had a real issue with my self-worth. Embarrassing to admit as a confidence coach but also unsurprising giving what I’d just lived through. It’s also something that comes...

052 The Importance of Fun to a Happy and Healthy Life
Unlock Your Confidence with Clare Walsh
This episode we are focusing on the importance of fun to a happy and healthy life. I was recently asked to consider how I could bring more fun into my life and realised that I was slightly stumped by the question. I struggled to identify how and when I allow myself to have fun. And as usual that got me thinking and noticing, and here we are with an episode devoted to the importance of having fun. In this episode we are going to explore: what fun is; why it’s so important – what it does for us; the three elements essential for fun; and how we can have more fun. Previous episode...
