Confidence is Action - by Tricia Conyers (Paperback)

About the Book

You already know what you want. Why aren't you going after it?

Book Synopsis

You already know what you want. Why aren't you going after it?

Women are adept at carrying invisible weight. We carry self-doubt, fears of judgment, failure, and rejection, and the quiet, persistent belief that we're just not ready yet-that confidence is something other women have, and the rest of us need to wait for it to arrive.

But confidence doesn't come first. Action does.

That simple truth is the foundation of this book-and it will change your life.

In Confidence is Action, personal development coach and Inspire Her Coaching founder Tricia Conyers demystifies confidence and shows you how to own your power. You'll explore the truth about how confidence works and dismantle the limiting beliefs holding you back. You'll be equipped with The Confidence Wheel-a practical framework with specific actions that move confidence from concept to simple daily practice. And you'll hear the raw, honest stories of eight coauthors and a wider community of real women who stopped waiting and chose to act.

Confidence isn't something you either have or don't-and it isn't something you wait for. It's built intentionally, step by step, day by day, through the small, consistent choices you make-even when you don't feel ready, perfect, or certain. That is exactly how your most Brilliant, Brave, and Bold Self comes alive.

No more dimming your light. No more waiting. It's time for action.

Review Quotes

Tricia Conyers names something women have been told backwards for years: confidence doesn't come first-action does. This isn't another book asking you to think differently. It's a practical framework that shows you exactly where you're stuck and what to do about it. And here's what makes it matter beyond you: When one woman stops waiting and starts acting, the women around her do too.

-Alina Vincent, business and technology strategist

In Confidence is Action, Tricia Conyers delivers a powerful and timely reminder to women that confidence is not something you are born with; it is something you grow. She combines insight with action. Her Confidence Wheel is an excellent tool for diagnosing, developing, and tracking personal growth. The emphasis on being brilliant (self-aware), brave (action-orientated), and bold (visible) offers a clear pathway for action. Particularly impactful are the closing chapters, where Caribbean women share their journeys with honesty and vulnerability-something rarely seen in small societies where success often masks struggle. This is a must-read and one I will confidently recommend to my female clients.

-Sharon Christopher, leadership development coach & recipient of the Chaconia Medal (Gold)

"Who am I to do this?" is one of the most common questions I hear. Confidence is Action helps you answer it in a practical, accessible, and structured way. The Confidence Wheel turns our often vague understanding of confidence into ten workable dimensions, paired with action steps you can take right now. But what makes this book truly powerful is the proof inside: real stories of women doing the work, answering "Who am I to do this?" the only way that counts-by doing it.

-Charlotte Grimmel, business psychologist & leadership coach

Confidence is so often misunderstood and seen as something to acquire, perform or prove. Yet in my experience of working with leaders over many years, true confidence emerges more quietly, when we are given the space to think, to be heard, and to reconnect with who we truly are.

This is exactly what Tricia offers in this insightful and deeply practical book.

Through her thoughtfully crafted framework, she brings confidence to life in a way that is both accessible and authentic. She guides the reader beyond self-doubt and external expectation, offering clear and meaningful ways to build confidence that is grounded, resilient, and their own.

What shines through is her gift as a coach and facilitator creating the conditions for others to think more clearly, trust themselves more fully, and step forward with courage.

This is not a book that tells you who to be. It is a book that helps you become more of who you already are.

A powerful and timely contribution.

-Jane Adshead-Grant, MCC & executive coach

Building a business requires one thing above everything else: the willingness to act before you feel ready. Tricia Conyers has written the ultimate guide to doing exactly that. If you've ever let doubt slow you down, this book will change the way you move.

-Captain Monique Nobrega, cofounder of Tribe Carnival

Tricia Conyers uses vignettes of her own life story to weave a compelling and elegantly argued narrative: When one woman strengthens her confidence, she elevates those around her. Confidence is Action invites readers to examine their inner landscape and engage deliberately in their own growth. Tricia positions confidence as a conscious, cultivated practice. And in her book, she provides the map to help women get there.
