Root to Rise

There is a tension from living in a world that demands empathy often at the expense of our own truth.With commentary swirling online about who deserves compassion and who doesn’t, I want to reframe the conversation: empathy is not a performance, and silence can be wisdom.Rooting in your truth and values is the first step to rising in alignment with yourself—especially in times of chaos, controversy, and cultural pressure.Listen to "Root Work" on Apple Podcasts -- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/root-work/id1786861767?i=1000725341014Resources Mentioned & Show Notes Confident Women Glow is the podcast where we dive into self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expression so you can live a life that’s bold, honest and deeply yours.Hosted by Mo James, Confidence Coach. Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

Life feels heavy right now. Systems are stripping safety, stability, and humanity from people and surface-level fixes just don’t cut it.In this episode I'm talking about some deeper grounding practices, what I calls root work, to help us navigate chaos, harm, and uncertainty. Tending your roots creates resilience and confidence that no system can take away.I don't believe confidence ONLY grows in the light....it grows underground, in the dark places, in the roots we’ve tended with care.Listen in and ask yourself: What does your root work look like right now?Resources Mentioned & Show Notes Confident Women Glow is the podcast where we dive into self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expression so you can live a life that’s bold, honest and deeply yours.Hosted by Mo James, Confidence Coach.

This week on Confident Women Glow, we’re revisiting one of the most talked-about episodes: BDE.Now, if you’re already smirking, you know exactly what I mean... In this episode, I talk about the confidence, presence, and energy that comes from being fully grounded in who you are.BDE isn’t about arrogance or performance. It’s about the quiet, unshakable self-trust that radiates without you even saying a word. It’s the energy that tells the room: I know who I am, I know what I deserve, and I’m not here to shrink.If you’ve been needing a reminder to stop waiting for permission, to walk taller, and to embody the power that’s already yours, this replay will speak to you.Listen in and let this conversation call you back to your boldest, most unapologetic self.Resources Mentioned & Show Notes  Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

Many of us were trained to check on everybody else, and not to expect anyone to check on us.In this episode I share my journey as a first-born daughter, a soldier, and a woman who had to learn what it felt like to have friends and systems that truly held space for my care.Together, we’ll talk about:- Why so many women learn not to expect support- How to shift from self-sacrifice to self-sustenance- What a “check-in system” is and how to create one for yourself.Here’s the truth I want you to know: You deserve care. You deserve to be checked on. Leet's talk about how to create this for yourself.Resources Mentioned & Show Notes  Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

In this episode I’m breaking down the season finale of The Gilded Age and the lessons it’s serving for our real lives.From Bertha Russell ending the ban on divorced women in society, to Marian admitting she expects the worst because she’s lived through it, to Dr. Kirkland defying his meddling mother and proposing in the middle of a ballroom—this episode was packed with moments about self-trust, courage, and owning your decisions.I’m also talking about the Russells’ unforgettable exchange on being ruthless in and for love, and the power of calling out chaos, like Dorothy Scott and Rev. Kirkland did when Mrs. Kirkland tried to sabotage her own son’s relationship.I believe these moments mirror the choices, boundaries, and bold moves we face every day, so let's get into it.Resources Mentioned & Show Notes  Confident Women Glow is the podcast where we dive into self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expression so you can live a life that’s bold, honest and deeply yours.Hosted by Mo James, Confidence Coach. Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

In this special live-recorded episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on Camille, the AI confidence coach I designed with one purpose: to give women consistent, accessible support in a world that feels increasingly unstable.I share the backstory of how recent political and economic upheavals made me ask, “What can I do about this?” Instead of staying in anger or frustration, I looked at what I had access to, and began building a tool that combines my confidence coaching framework, my lived experience, and my training with the accessibility and reach of AI.Camille was built with care, ethics, and the real-life needs of women in mind, offering guidance while knowing when to point you toward a therapist or other human support. In this episode, I share why I chose the ChatGPT platform, how I designed Camille to feel like she sees you, and why I believe this blend of human wisdom and technology matters right now.If you’ve been wondering how innovation can serve women — and not just sell to them — this conversation is for you.Get Camille here -- camilleai.netResources Mentioned and Show NotesConfident Women Glow is the podcast where we dive into self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expression so you can live a life that’s bold, honest and deeply yours.Hosted by Mo James, Confidence Coach. Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

Tis week’s episode is one from the archive, and it’s a powerful one.In this conversation, I’m talking about intersections, the many layers, experiences, identities, and stories that shape who we are. We get tricked into compartmentalizing ourselves, or we feel pressured to choose one part of our identity over another. But real growth happens when we understand how our layers connect.I talk my coaching framework and how each part intersects with the others to support your confidence journey. When we understand our intersections, we’re able to meet ourselves with more compassion, more grace, and less judgment.This episode is a reminder that all of you is welcome—and every layer matters.**************************************************Resources Mentioned & Show Notes  Confident Women Glow is the podcast where we dive into self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expression so you can live a life that’s bold, honest and deeply yours.Hosted by Mo James, Confidence Coach. Camille is your AI confidence coach and on-demand agent of support.

There was a time I didn’t feel ready—chosen, yes. But confident? Not even close.In this episode from the archive, I’m taking you back to my early days in the Army, to a moment that felt too big, too public, and too terrifying, and fear almost took me out. I made a powerful choice: to borrow the confidence I didn’t yet believe I had.Whether you’re stepping into something new or questioning your worth, this story is a reminder: you don’t have to wait until you feel ready.
