Ever feel like admitting you don’t know something is the worst possible thing you could do at work? You’re not alone. In this episode ofConfident at Work, we’re tackling the fear, pressure, and self-doubt that come with saying"I don't know."

We’ll explore why uncertainty feels so uncomfortable, how low confidence can make it even harder to admit when we don’t know something, and why pretending to have all the answers only leads to more stress. But here’s the twist - owning what youdon’t know is actually a sign of confidence and credibility.

We will take a look at:

✔ Why saying“I don’t know” can feel so scary✔ How imposter syndrome makes it harder to admit uncertainty✔ The hidden costs of over-preparing to avoid not knowing✔ Why real confidence includes embracing what youdon’t know✔ How practicing in low-stakes situations builds your comfort with uncertainty

Take away some new ways of thinking and some practical strategies to reframe uncertainty and start using"I don’t know" as a powerful tool rather than a confidence killer.
