Building Confidence One Brave Step at a Time with Jenn Espinosa Goswami
What if confidence isn’t something you’re born with—but something you build?
In this episode of Dancing in the Discomfort Zone, I talk with Jenn Espinosa-Goswami, (https://www.weightlesschronicles.com/) international speaker, certified speaking coach, and founder of Weightless Chronicles, about her journey from bullied kid to bold speaker. After growing up teased for her weight and hiding from the spotlight, Jenn discovered her voice through a study abroad program in Germany—and eventually lost 100 pounds, found her confidence, and built a career helping others find theirs.
Jenn’s message is clear: confidence isn’t about perfection, it’s about practice. She shares her four-step transformation process—creating awareness, setting clear goals, celebrating progress, and reflecting on what works—and how those same principles apply far beyond weight loss.
We dive into the difference between authenticity and oversharing, how to own your story without giving it all away, and what it really takes to step into visibility as a speaker, leader, or human being who’s done hiding.
