Hosted by Zak The Health King

Nadine Pfeifer is the founder of HopStair.com, described as the Duolingo of Confidence Building.

She has a mission to help people build foundational confidence.

Today we focus on mental health, but discuss the connection between physical, mental, and emotional health, highlighting how people often focus on physical health while neglecting mental health, despite the significant correlation

We talk about the importance of building confidence, understanding what confidence truly means, and how it differs from arrogance.

Nadine explains the concept of confidence as appreciating oneself and one's capabilities, not in an overbearing way but in a manner that fosters self-respect and self-belief.

The discussion points out common misconceptions about confidence, such as equating it with extroversion or arrogance.

Nadine emphasizes that true confidence is about being comfortable with oneself and one's values, rather than seeking external validation.

Confidence is presented as a crucial element in mental health that is often overlooked in traditional mental health discussions and treatments. The conversation suggests that confidence building should be an integral part of mental health care.

Nadine shares her personal journey, how she came to focus on confidence building through her own experiences with mental health challenges, and how confidence building transformed her life.

She highlights the lack of attention given to confidence building in conventional mental health education and therapy.

HopStair.com: A resource for confidence building, designed to provide users with tools and strategies to develop their confidence in a manner similar to learning a new language on Duolingo.

The conversation touches on societal challenges and perceptions related to confidence, including how society often discourages standing out or being different. Nadine discusses the difficulties people face in building confidence within a societal framework that may not always support or understand the importance of self-belief and self-respect.

A philosophical part of the discussion explores the human tendency to compare oneself to others. Nadine argues that while comparison is natural, focusing on one's own progress and being true to one's values is more beneficial for personal growth and confidence.

Overall, the podcast emphasizes the pivotal role of confidence in mental health, challenges societal misconceptions about confidence, and advocates for a broader understanding and integration of confidence building in mental health discussions and treatments.
