What is a confidence coach?
Confidence coaching works on self-esteem, assertiveness, and presence. It serves anyone who feels held back by self-doubt, fear of judgment, impostor syndrome, or difficulty saying no. Your coach helps you understand the roots of these patterns (limiting beliefs, past experiences), then practise new behaviours in real situations: speaking up, setting a boundary, defending an idea, negotiating. The goal is not to "become a different person" but to reclaim your legitimacy and act despite discomfort. Progress is built step by step, with concrete practice between sessions.
Why work with a confidence coach?
- Speak in public without anxiety taking over
- Assert your perspective confidently in meetings
- Overcome impostor syndrome
- Claim your space in your personal relationships
Approaches and methods
Coaches work on limiting beliefs, use role-play and assertiveness exercises, draw on NLP and positive psychology techniques, and apply anchoring methods. Consistency and practice between sessions are key to lasting results.
How much does a confidence coach cost?
A confidence coaching session typically costs between €60 and €140 per hour. Coaches often offer progressive packages focused on public speaking or assertiveness. A free discovery session is available on EraCoach.
