Who is The Confidence Course for?
The Confidence Course is for women who want to become confident in all areas of life.
-
The Confidence Course is for women who want to become confident in all areas of life but our primary focus is on building confidence in the workplace. Whether you’re fearful of speaking up in meetings, lacking the courage to start your own business or apply for a leadership role, uncomfortable to set healthy boundaries, hesitant in social settings or holding yourself back from pursuing your version of a fulfilling career and life, there’s something in this course for you.
If you’re the kind of person who experiences self-doubt or feels ‘not good enough’ at times, this program will change how you feel about yourself.
- Feel intimidated or uncomfortable around overly assertive people.
- Sometimes feel a sense of imposter syndrome or ‘not feeling good enough’.
- Want to learn how to be quietly confident, rather than developing a big ego or changing your core personality in any way.
- Want to feel comfortable to be the ‘real’ you.
- Love the idea that building your confidence will make a positive difference in the lives of other people too.
- Believe in living and working in alignment with your values.
- Care about collaborating, giving back and making a difference in the world in some way.

The Modules
Each week I will introduce case studies, research and practical exercises to teach you how to become your most confident self.
Module 1 – Defining ‘real’ confidence
We’ll explore what ‘real’ confidence is (and what it isn’t) and how you can genuinely build your confidence, regardless of your age or life stage. We will examine the difference between confidence and self-esteem and define how confident you currently are. We’ll identify the areas of confidence you most want to focus on during the program.
Module 2 – Build courage and resilience
In this week’s module, we’ll look at the relationship between fear and confidence and identify the steps required to build courage as you begin to pursue your goals and dreams. We’ll discuss how to build resilience, how to cultivate calm, how to overcome setbacks and how to find support as you grow your confidence.
Module 3 - Discover your purpose
In this module you’ll learn how your personal values, your strengths and your sense of purpose are the most effective tools on your journey to build your confidence. I’ll share exercises to help you identify each of these elements so you feel a greater sense of clarity about who you are and your life direction.
Module 4 – Connect with your confident self
This week you’ll learn about how to discover and engage your innate strengths as well as how to adopt a growth mindset. I’ll also share how to connect with the confident part of yourself and create your vision for your ideal career and life.
Module 5 – Let go of your limiting beliefs
This week’s focus will be letting go of the limiting beliefs that are currently holding you back. You’ll learn how to quieten your inner critic (and your internal imposter) and discover how to make peace with the past and move forward with a true sense of confidence.
Module 6 – Create the habit of confidence
Learn how to move on from your self-sabotaging behaviours and cultivate the habit of confidence. This will keep you on track after the course has completed so you continue to pursue your version of a fulfilling career and life.

“Kate has created a truly inspirational, practical and top “value for money” offering in her group programs. I was guided to connect with my deepest self, my strengths and forgotten passions, to keep focused and be courageous. I will be able to revisit the material regularly to keep on track with my personal progress. Kate has such a caring and supportive nature that I felt motivated, encouraged and reassured in my efforts. I am so grateful to Kate for whole-heartedly sharing her own experiences, creativity and wisdom in this course in such an accessible manner. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking direction and a more meaningful life.”
Sarah
“Participating in Kate’s program set into motion a series of events that has changed my life enormously. It has sent me on a journey of self-discovery that still continues and has left me with a deeper appreciation of my life. At a time when I was looking for new directions, this course offered a well-structured, purposeful and practical way to clarify my thinking and identify my strengths, values and visions for a meaningful life. I continue to practice my meditations and other exercises (almost) each day and notice the difference this makes in my life. I would recommend this course to anyone in a heartbeat.”
Anne-Marie
“I loved every minute of Kate’s program and can’t recommend it highly enough. It is full to the brim with Kate’s wisdom and insights, together with thought-provoking exercises which I have enjoyed re-visiting after the course finished. The material really helped strip away the many ‘shoulds’ I impose on myself and enabled me to tap into my true heart’s desire. I particularly loved the meditation mp3s. The program was a unique and highly valuable experience!”
Catherine
“This program was just the kick start I needed to think about my life and where I wanted to go. The thought-provoking exercises and introduction to inspiring people was a highlight.”
Alison
“The enduring discovery I made with the guidance of this program was that strengths, insight, goodness and even some wisdom all lay hidden within the most surprising of places – myself. There all along, they were obscured by my own limiting beliefs and self-talk. Some of the exercises helped me listen beyond the babble of negative voices so I could hear and believe the good things too. Some exercises and guided meditations challenged me. I continue to work towards some of the goals I included in my life map.”
Kerrie
“Thanks Kate! This program has refocused and rejuvenated my life. I have so many changes in progress and am actually enjoying the process and the challenge instead of feeling impatient. I am calmer, happier and excited about a future that reflects my true self.”

Frequently Asked Questions
The Confidence Course commences on Saturday 8 October 2022. The first module’s content will be available on the learning platform a few days before the coaching call. Calls will be held on Saturday from 9.30am to 10.30am each week.
The first call is Saturday 8 October 2022 at 9.30am (Melbourne, Australia time). Convert to your timezone here. Subsequent calls are at the same time each week.
Groups are capped at 12 women. If you’re interested to run the course at your workplace, we can discuss offering a larger group. Please get in touch for more information.
All of our group calls are recorded so you’ll be able to catch up on content by watching the recording.
Ideally, you’ll need at least a couple of hours each week to get the most from the course as well as time during your week to commit to your chosen confidence-building action steps. We’ll spend an hour together on a group coaching call and there’ll be at least an hour’s worth of homework to complete before the next call. Each week I will also share a guided meditation and an expert interview which are optional listening.
Not at all. Many of our clients prefer to limit the use of social media. We’ll be extending an invitation for participants to keep in touch via email as well if this is preferable.
The group is open to all women who want to feel more confident in life. Our focus will be on workplace and business confidence so regardless of whether you’re in a professional role or your own business, there’ll be something in this program for you.
If you’ve opened this question, it’s likely you’re a perfect fit for this group. Almost all of Kate’s clients are women who consider themselves to be introverts so it’s very likely you’ll feel completely at home here. Having said that, it’s important that you feel you can participate at your own pace so please feel comfortable to sit back and listen if that’s your preference. There’ll be no pressure in the group setting at all.
You’re not alone! We’ve kept this in mind while developing the course content. Each module includes some reading material but please rest assured, you won’t be reading pages of research and theory. Even if you only join the call and commit to your weekly action, you’ll notice some change in how confident you feel.
If you feel that the program isn’t right for you, we offer a full refund within 10 days of commencing the program. We also ask for your feedback about how we might have improved the experience for you.
Yes absolutely. Please get in touch and we’ll send you some information.
