What does confidence really mean?

In this episode of Confident Kids, we talk about confidence in a simple, kid-friendly way. Confidence isn’t about being perfect or never feeling scared — it’s about believing you can try, even when something feels hard. Kids will learn that feeling nervous is normal, mistakes help us grow, and confidence is something we build every time we keep going.

Perfect for kids who are learning, growing, and becoming braver every day.
