Summary

Your nervous system holds the key to real confidence. You know the moment—your chest tightens, your mind blanks, and you freeze… right when it matters most. In this episode, Kwame Christian sits down with Jay Fields, somatic coach to Fortune 100 leaders and author of Teaching People Not Poses, to unpack the real reason we lose confidence under pressure—and how to stop it. Discover Jay’s powerful “Hey, Wait” method to interrupt emotional hijacks, stay grounded in tense conversations, and actually like who you are when the stakes are high. Whether you’re negotiating, leading, or trying to stop people-pleasing, this conversation gives you tools your nervous system will thank you for. This isn’t mindset fluff—it's embodied change.
