Summary
Today Stacy Bahnsen and I dive into what it really means to be a confident leader at work and in life. I’m joined by executive and leadership life coach Stacy Bahnsen, and together we unpack the five core qualities of a confident leader—trusting yourself, having the courage to be seen, staying curious, honoring your boundaries, and leading with clarity. Stacy shares the powerful story of “hitting the button” on a major life and career investment, walking away from a prestigious operations director role, and why not deciding was more painful than making a bold move. We talk about self-trust in leadership, the lonely reality of the C‑suite, and why you can always “re-decide” without abandoning your ultimate goal. You’ll hear practical visuals—from rockets failing their way to the moon to driving with headlights in the dark and treating your potential like a Ferrari, not a rental Prius—that make decision-making, courage, and confidence easier to apply immediately. We share some personal experiences as leaders and a few wins along with a few big moments where we learn lifelong lessons. Learn from our conversation and leave with a few life lessons you can use moving forward to become a strong, confident leader regardless of what you encounter along the way!
