Episode 108: Confidence Isn’t a Mood, It’s a Muscle

Turn Fear Around Podcast – Episode 108: Confidence Isn’t a Mood, It’s a Muscle
Think confidence is just something you feel? Think again. Confidence isn’t a mood—it’s a muscle you build. And like any muscle, if you don’t use it... you lose it.
In this short episode, I break down how forgetting to work out your “confidence muscle” is one of the most common reasons anxiety creeps back in—especially for riders and horse lovers.
You’ll learn practical steps for strengthening your confidence from the inside out—even if it feels weak right now.

In just 5–10 minutes, you’ll discover:
• 🐴 How confidence works like a muscle (not a mood)
• 🐴 Tools to rebuild confidence after fear or doubt
• 🐴 How horses help us with emotional and physical healing
These bite-sized episodes are designed to give you simple tools to reset anxiety and restore calm. Perfect for anyone facing riding anxiety, dealing with a nervous horse, or trying to reconnect with their courage.
