Most people think confidence is something you’re born with.
Elle Russ says otherwise.

In this episode of The Expert Authority Coach Podcast, Christine Blosdale sits down with bestselling author, screenwriter, creator, and confidence expert Elle Russ to unpack what confidence really is - and why so many brilliant people stay stuck in self-doubt, overthinking, fear of judgment, and waiting to “feel ready.”

Elle Russ is the #1 bestselling author of The Paleo Thyroid Solution and Confident As Fuk*, the screenwriter of the award-winning documentary Headhunt Revisited, and a television comedy creator and writer with multiple original scripted projects.

Together, Christine and Elle explore:

✨ The real difference between confidence and arrogance
✨ Why confidence is built through action - not perfection
✨ How self-doubt quietly sabotages success and visibility
✨ Small “brave actions” that create lasting confidence
✨ Why discomfort is often the doorway to growth

This conversation is honest, empowering, practical, and deeply relatable for entrepreneurs, creatives, coaches, authors, speakers, and anyone ready to stop shrinking themselves and finally step into their full authority.

If you’ve ever questioned your worth, hesitated to put yourself out there, or felt trapped by fear of judgment, this episode will challenge you to think differently - and act differently.

Why Your Energy Matters More Than Your Marketing
Special Guest: Claudia Noriega Bernstein

What if the reason you’re struggling to attract aligned clients, opportunities, confidence, or abundance has less to do with your marketing… and more to do with your energy?

In this deeply powerful and honest conversation, Christine Blosdale sits down with Claudia Noriega Bernstein to explore why your energy, self-worth, and inner alignment matter far more than most business strategies.

Together, they unpack how scarcity, self-doubt, people-pleasing, and the pressure to shrink ourselves can quietly sabotage visibility, confidence, and success - especially for women entrepreneurs.

This episode dives into the emotional side of entrepreneurship, the connection between self-worth and authority, why people can “feel” your energy online and offline, and how true abundance begins from within.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, exhausted from chasing success, or disconnected from your own value, this conversation will remind you that the most magnetic thing about you is not perfection - it’s authenticity.
