What if you’re not unrealistic… What if you’re remembering what’s possible? In this week’s Mid Week Tease, I unpack something that stopped me in my tracks during my conversation with Natasha Ali on Difference She Makes. She said, almost laughing, “I think I’m a little delusional.” But what if that “delusion” is actually optimism bias? What if it’s self-efficacy? What if it’s the power of possible selves? In this episode, we explore: Why representation recalibrates what feels possibleThe psychology behind optimism bias (and why it helps women take bold risks)How to use the concept of “possible selves” to move toward your futureThe difference between impostor syndrome and audacious beliefWhy community is essential when your confidence is still formingThis is a reflective, psychology-backed conversation for any woman who has ever been told she’s too ambitious, too unrealistic, or dreaming too big. Maybe you’re not delusional. Maybe your belief is data.
