Untapped Confidence
Untapped Confidence is a podcast for high-achieving women who want more than just surface-level self-improvement; they want to feel powerfully secure in who they are, no matter the situation.
Hosted by Raffaela Marie - speaker, mentor, and creator of the STRENGTH Method - who overcame chronic skin picking, selective mutism, social anxiety, and depression not by waiting for confidence to appear, but by building it with intention from the inside out.
Each episode explores what’s really going on beneath the surface when your confidence shrinks and offers science-based tools to help you let go of pressure, self-doubt, and performative patterns.
Authentic confidence isn’t one-size-fits-all. It isn’t about becoming louder, tougher, or more polished. It’s about becoming more you, feeling at home in yourself, and learning how to live, lead, and simply be from that place.
If you’re ready to reclaim your voice, your presence, and a deep sense of peace - this space is for you.

75: Turning Self-Care from a Chore into Something You Crave
If you’ve ever told yourself you’ll “do better with self-care” only to watch it slide the moment life gets stressful, you’re not alone.
Most high-achieving women know self-care is important, yet it often feels like one more task on the never-ending to-do list!
In this episode, I share why that happens, the deeper beliefs behind it, and how to reframe self-care so it feels nourishing instead of draining.
You’ll hear about:
- Why high-achieving women often struggle to prioritize self-care without guilt.
- The hidden connection between productivity, worthiness, and self-neglect.
- A “child self” perspective shift that helps you care for yourself differently.
- Everyday practices that actually ground and recharge you (not just quick fixes).
- Reflection questions to help you define self-care in a way that feels natural and consistent.
