The confidence conversation isn't wrong. Many of us do need to back ourselves more. But it's incomplete. It places responsibility on individuals while leaving systems untouched.

So this week, I invite you to reflect:

  • Where have you seen the "confidence gap" narrative play out in your career—in ways that helped, or in ways that obscured deeper issues?
  • What's one thing your organisation could do differently to create a level playing field—not just for confident women, but for all women?
  • And if you're willing to share: When have you stretched into something you didn't feel ready for, and surprised yourself?
