Stop Abandoning Yourself: How to Build Unshakeable Confidence with Misha Brown
Are you your own worst critic? In this powerful episode of The Terri Cole Show, Terri sits down with viral content creator and New York Times bestselling author Misha Brown (@YourBestieMisha) to discuss his new book, Be Your Own Bestie: A No-Nonsense Guide to Changing the Way You Treat Yourself.
Misha shares his "Hero Origin Story"—moving from being bullied to becoming an empathic powerhouse for millions. You’ll learn why waiting for confidence is a mistake and how his S.A.S.S. Method (Self-reflection, Affirmations, Standing your ground, and Sculpting your life) can help you reclaim your power.
Inside this episode, we explore:
✨ The S.A.S.S. Method: A step-by-step framework for radical self-love.
✨ Confidence vs. Trust: Why showing up when you’re scared is the only way to build real self-esteem.
✨ The Art of "Dating Yourself": Simple daily practices to stop self-neglect.
✨ Internal Boundaries: How to stop letting your "inner saboteur" run the show.
✨ The Power of Community: Moving stories of real-life transformation from the Bestie community.
If you’re ready to stop the toxic self-talk and start treating yourself like someone you actually love, this interview is for you.
