Why 'Just Be Confident' Is Ruining Your Dating Life (And What Actually Works)

Описание: If dating feels exhausting, performative, or like you’re auditioning for approval, this video will change how you understand confidence forever.

This is for women who are done chasing chemistry, reassurance, and external validation and want a calm, grounded, self-trusting connection instead.

In this final video of the End the Audition: Dating from Inner Glow series, I break down why confidence is not the starting point in dating and why feeling safe in your body is the real foundation for self-love, self-trust, and healthy relationships.

Confidence without safety is just performance. And performance is self-abandonment.

If you’ve tried affirmations, mindset shifts, or “putting yourself out there” but still feel anxious, hypervigilant, or addicted to reassurance, then this is a nervous system pattern rooted in childhood conditioning, people-pleasing, and fear-based attachment.

This video is about embodiment, not motivation. Because change only sticks when your body feels safe being you.

In this video, you will learn:
✅ Why confidence advice fails women who don’t feel safe in their bodies
✅ The difference between performance-based dating and regulated connections
✅ How people-pleasing and self-abandonment are nervous system survival strategies
✅ Why fear-based “chemistry” feels intense but keeps you stuck
✅ How to stop confusing urgency with intimacy
✅ What it actually means to feel safe being alone
✅ How nervous system regulation leads to higher standards, not loneliness
✅ The Glow Method and how to use it in real time when you feel the urge to impress
✅ How childhood beliefs shape your dating patterns and relationships
✅ Why self-respect, self-trust, and inner peace are the real lifestyle upgrade

✨About Me:

I am Angie Hawkins, the Inner Glow Coach.

I help high-achieving, emotionally intelligent women stop self-abandoning, break people-pleasing, and build a self-identity rooted in safety, self-trust, and inner power.

This is not about fixing yourself. It’s about coming home to who you were before you learned to perform for love.

If this landed and you’re thinking, “I see the pattern, but I don’t know how to change it alone,” this is the work we do inside my coaching and masterclasses.

We focus on:
– nervous system safety
– self-trust and boundaries
– breaking external validation addiction
– and building standards without burning out

No pressure. When you’re ready, you’ll know.
