Inner Self-Confidence

Hosted by Katie Delimon, Author, Coach & Yoga Teacher, this podcast is for women who overthink, self-doubt, people-please, or freeze when it’s time to speak up.

Each episode explores how to build real inner self-confidence through nervous system regulation, boundaries, and self-trust — especially under stress. Expect practical tools, honest conversations, and simple strategies to build capacity, clarity, and consistency, so you can show up calm, clear, and confident.

✨ Confidence isn’t about being louder — it’s about feeling safe in your body.

34. Stop Blaming Your Parents, Partner & Perimenopause Mar 18, 2026

Show notes

This might be a controversial episode, but everything I do is deeply rooted in compassion. This episode is no different.

We need to talk about something nobody in the wellness space is saying out loud.

We have more licensed psychologists than ever before in history. More therapy apps, more mental health awareness, more diagnoses, more labels, more validation than any generation before us.

And yet we have more depressed, anxious, stressed and medicated humans than ever.

So is validation alone actually healing us?

In this episode, I'm talking about:

🔥 Why we've swung too far from suppression into a validation trap that's keeping women stuck
🔥 The labels we hide behind — ADHD, anxiety, narcissistic abuse, perimenopause, attachment styles — and the question nobody is asking: what are we actually DOING about it?
🔥 Why most psychologists are validating pain without moving people forward
🔥 Why social media is great for validation but NOT the place people actually get better
🔥 The difference between explanation and transformation
🔥 What TRUE compassion actually looks like
🔥 Why inner capacity doesn't come through comfort — and what 20 minutes a day can actually do for your life
🔥 Why the first four weeks of my 90 Days to Inner Self-Confidence program are dedicated entirely to building inner capacity through discomfort

Your diagnosis is not your destiny.
Your past is not your prison.
Your hormones are not your identity.

Your past informs you, it doesn't define you.

You are a human with an extraordinary capacity to heal — and all it takes is the courage to do the uncomfortable work.

33. She Talks to Dead People & Lime Energy Hack with Psychic Medium, Jessica Lynne Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

She talks to dead people… but what does that actually mean?

In this fascinating episode, I sit down with Jessica Lynne, one of Australia’s most in-demand psychic mediums, known for her extraordinary ability to — in her own words — “talk to dead people.”

Jess shares how she went from working in the fast-paced corporate world as an Executive Assistant to answering her spiritual calling and becoming a globally recognised medium, connecting people with loved ones who have passed.

In this conversation we explore:
• When Jess first realised she had this gift
• The signs loved ones send from the spirit world
• Whether spirits can show up anywhere (even at the grocery store)
• What skeptics get wrong about mediumship
• How she protects her energy from grief and trauma
• And the famous “Lime Hack” she uses to clear energy and reset her space

Jess has read for celebrities, athletes, musicians and business leaders, and has been featured on The Morning Show, 7News, Vogue, Marie Claire, Mamamia, Body+Soul and The Australian.

Whether you're curious, skeptical, or simply fascinated by what happens beyond this life, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about the unseen world around us.

32. Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back with Author Alicia Cook Mar 04, 2026

Show notes

"Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back" isn't about being flaky—it's a nervous system snapshot.

In this powerful conversation, Katie sits down with poet Alicia Cook, bestselling author of Stuff I've Been Feeling Lately and the viral poem Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back, to unpack why so many women go silent when life gets overwhelming.

This isn't about avoidance or laziness. It's about freeze and fawn—survival responses women learn early to stay safe, likable, and low-maintenance.

In this episode, we explore:

Why women disappear when they're struggling (and why it's not weakness—it's disconnection from the body)
How freeze and fawn show up in relationships, work, and everyday life
The turning point when Alicia realized: "I don't owe everyone access to me"
What regulation looks like in real life (not theory)
Alicia's sobriety journey and the benefits of getting honest with herself
What inner self-confidence actually means—and how it changes everything

This conversation will validate every woman who's ever gone quiet, apologized for existing, or stayed "nice" when she wanted to scream.

If you've ever felt safer disappearing than disappointing someone, this episode is for you.

31. What We Don't Speak, We Store Feb 23, 2026

Show notes

What We Don't Speak, We Store

In this powerful episode, Katie Delimon reveals the profound truth that silence doesn't protect us—it destroys us from the inside out.

Born out of infidelity and kept a secret for 38 years, Katie shares her deeply personal journey of discovering her biological father's identity and the generational trauma of emotional suppression that nearly cost her everything.

From her mother's battle with ovarian cancer to her own struggles with IBS, anxiety, chronic fatigue, and toxic relationships, Katie unpacks the science behind what happens when we swallow our truth. Studies show that emotional suppression increases cancer risk by 70% and that women who silence themselves in conflict are 4x more likely to die.

This isn't just about one family's secrets—it's about a culture that rewards women for staying quiet. Katie also addresses the uncomfortable silence in the wellness industry around the Epstein files and Deepak Chopra's involvement.

If you've ever felt a knot in your stomach from words you've never spoken, this episode will give you permission to finally speak up—even when your voice shakes.

Katie is delivering 5 keynotes in March on this topic, including speaking at the Mind Body Spirit Festival in Brisbane and Sydney.

30. Chapters 1-3 - Trust the Flames: My Wild Ride From Mindlessness to Mindfulness Feb 16, 2026

Show notes

Trust the Flames – Chapters 1–3 (3 Year Anniversary Celebration)

Three years ago, Trust the Flames was released into the world — a raw, honest memoir about unraveling, rebuilding, and remembering who I truly was.

In this special anniversary episode, I revisit Chapters 1–3 — the beginning of the fire.

This is where the story starts:
The anxiety.
The chaos.
The patterns I couldn’t yet see.
The woman who thought survival was strength.

These opening chapters capture who I was before boundaries.
Before nervous system awareness.
Before inner self-confidence.

Before I understood that what we don’t speak… we store.

If you’re new here, this is where my healing journey began.
If you’ve been here for a while, this is proof of what’s possible when you stop abandoning yourself and start respecting yourself.

Three years later, the flames still teach.

And the fire still refines. 🔥

29. Self Love is Keeping You Stuck! Feb 12, 2026

Show notes

Self-love gets all the hype.

Bubble baths. Affirmations. “Accept yourself as you are.”

But what if self-love is keeping you stuck?

In this bold Valentine’s Day episode, Katie breaks down the uncomfortable truth: loving yourself isn’t enough. You can love yourself and still tolerate disrespect. You can love yourself and still abandon your goals. You can love yourself and still poison your body, overgive in relationships, and betray your own standards.

Self-respect is different.

Self-respect asks:

Are your actions aligned with your future?
Are you keeping the promises you make to yourself?
Does your calendar reflect what you say matters?

Katie shares raw personal stories from her 20s — functional alcoholism, toxic relationships, chronic anxiety — and the turning point where she realized she didn’t lack self-love… she lacked self-respect.

She also breaks down:
• Why most women fail their goals (hint: it’s not discipline)
• The difference between compassion and self-betrayal
• Why asking for help is self-respect
• How inner self-confidence is built through alignment, not affirmation
• Why your time tells the truth about what you actually respect

If you’ve ever said “I love myself” while still tolerating less than you deserve — this episode will hit.

This isn’t about being harder on yourself.

It’s about honoring yourself.

And that changes everything.

28. Intuition Isn’t Emotion with Yale Divinity School teacher, Dr. Brandon Nappi Feb 01, 2026

Show notes

What if intuition isn’t a feeling… but a form of deep inner knowing?

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Brandon Nappi, a teacher at Yale Divinity School, for a grounded, refreshing conversation that bridges spirituality, mysticism, psychology, and self-trust—without bypassing reality or common sense.

In this episode, we talk about:

Dr. Nappi’s journey and what led him to teaching at Yale Divinity
Why spirituality, religion, and mysticism feel threatening to so many people
How to explore the divine without losing discernment or grounding
The difference between spirituality, intuition, and inner self-confidence
Why intuition is not emotion—and how to tell the difference
The five lies that block intuition
Simple reframes for perfectionism and imposter syndrome
What to remember when you’re struggling to believe in yourself
How inner self-confidence differs from external confidence
Where to find Dr. Nappi and continue learning from his work

This episode is for you if you’re craving depth without dogma, spirituality without bypassing, and confidence that comes from self-trust—not performance.

27. The Father Wound Jan 21, 2026

Show notes

The Father Wound isn’t just about your relationship with your dad — it’s about how you learned to navigate the world.

In this deeply personal episode, I share a truth I only discovered later in life: the man who raised me is not my biological father. From that revelation, we explore what the Father Wound really is, how it forms, and how it quietly shapes your career, money patterns, relationships, boundaries, and sense of safety.

An unhealed Father Wound can show up as overworking, self-sabotage, fear of authority, imposter syndrome, emotionally unavailable partners, difficulty asking for help, or feeling like you don’t truly belong (especially in professional spaces) — even when you “should” feel confident.

This episode isn’t about blaming parents. It’s about awareness, responsibility, grief, and healing. We talk about re-parenting yourself, rewriting internal narratives, and choosing differently — even when familiar patterns feel like home.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re still trying to prove your worth, waiting to feel chosen, or carrying a weight that was never yours to hold — this episode is for you.

You are not broken.
You are not too much.
You’re carrying a wound — and it’s time to put it down.

26. High-Functioning: The Hidden Cost of Being the Strong One, with Mindset Coach, Sarah Robb Jan 13, 2026

Show notes

So many high-achieving women are praised for being capable, reliable, and strong — yet quietly feel exhausted, disconnected, or on the edge of burnout.

In this episode, I’m joined by Sarah Robb, Mindset Coach & Speaker , for a conversation about high-functioning as a survival strategy, not a personality trait. Together, we explore why so many women don’t realise they’re struggling until they hit a wall — and why mindset and willpower eventually stop working.

We talk about grief, loss, and the “strong one” identity, how unprocessed emotions live in the nervous system, and why slowing down can feel unsafe even when the body is desperate for rest. This episode reframes what a true breakthrough actually is — and why healing isn’t about doing more, fixing yourself, or pushing harder, but about learning how to feel safe in your body again.

If you’re successful on the outside but tired on the inside, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

✨ In this episode, we cover:

The hidden cost of being high-functioning
Why burnout often follows success
How grief and loss show up in “strong” women
The nervous system’s role in performance and exhaustion
Moving from survival-based success to sustainable success

25. Friendship Breakups - The Quiet Grief Jan 08, 2026

Show notes

There’s a kind of heartbreak we rarely talk about.
No funeral. No closure. No clear ending.
Just the quiet grief of losing someone who is still alive but unaligned.

In this solo episode, I explore why friendship breakups can be just as painful—if not more—than romantic ones. Why they feel so confusing when “nothing bad happened.” And why grief isn’t only about death, but about the loss of what was, what could have been, and what no longer fits.

We talk about:
• why friendship breakups hurt so deeply
• grief without death (and why it’s still valid)
• choosing alignment over history
• the two common ways friendships end
• why not every ending needs a villain
• how to let go with grace—without guilt

If you’re quietly grieving a friendship you never thought you’d lose, this episode is for you. You’re not dramatic. You’re not weak. You’re human.
