In this milestone 50th episode of the Don't You Worry Podcast, Briley and Britton are back together and diving deep into a conversation we all need—confidence. But not the kind that fades with likes, trends, or performance. We’re talking God-confidence—a bold, unshakable identity rooted in Christ alone. This episode is inspired by the powerful book A Crown That Lasts by Demi-Leigh Tebow, former Miss Universe, whose life story goes far beyond the runway. From people-pleasing and social media spirals to the trap of comparison and the rollercoaster of self-worth, Briley and Britton get honest, personal, and practical about where true confidence comes from. You’ll hear: What happens when our confidence is rooted in people or performance Why “fitting in” is fear-based, but “belonging” is born in love How Psalm 139 and God’s Word reframe your self-talk and reshape your identity Real-life stories of dance class comparison, prom pressure, and the lies we all tell ourselves The difference between loving yourself and relying on yourself This isn’t a “5 steps to confidence” episode. It’s an invitation into truth, scripture, and the kind of identity that actually lasts. Whether you’re in middle school, college, or just trying to keep your head up in a world that’s constantly telling you you’re not enough—this one’s for you. — ✨ Don't forget to like, follow, and share with a friend who needs a confidence reboot today!
