Description

The Merri-Cast is for emerging leaders navigating the journey from self-doubt to self-belief.

Host Trevor Merriden - executive coach and author of The Confidence Shift - talks to leaders and entrepreneurs about the moments that tested their confidence and how they came through them. Honest, practical and deeply human conversations about what leadership really feels like.

Every episode explores one or more of the five themes at the heart of The Confidence Shift: curiosity, creativity, clarity, commitment and confidence. Whether you’re leading for the first time, struggling to believe in your own ability, or building something from scratch and wondering if you’re really ready - this podcast is for you.
