  • Why Women Get Overlooked at Work (And How to Change It)

    Why Women Get Overlooked at Work (And How to Change It)
    Aug 17 2026
    You can be brilliant, hardworking and incredibly capable, and still find yourself being overlooked. But what if the problem isn't only what's happening around you? After speaking at a women in tech event, I left thinking about how many incredible women are frustrated that they're not being heard, recognised or given the opportunities they deserve, while also struggling to speak up, set boundaries, advocate for themselves and communicate what they actually want. There are absolutely barriers women face in workplaces and leadership. But this episode is about the part we have the power to change. I'm talking about radical responsibility, the stories we carry about ourselves and how those beliefs can quietly influence the way we show up, lead and allow other people to treat us. In this episode: • why working harder isn't always what gets you recognised • how your internal narrative can follow you into every room • what changes when you start advocating for yourself and your career • why confidence and self-trust are essential for women who want to lead If you're waiting for someone else to notice how capable you are, recognise your contribution or finally give you the opportunity you've been hoping for, this episode might challenge you to look somewhere different. At yourself. Because when you stop outsourcing your power, everything changes.

  • How Bad Bunny Brought Puerto Ricans Together in Australia

    How Bad Bunny Brought Puerto Ricans Together in Australia
    Aug 10 2026
    When Bad Bunny announced his Australian tour, we thought we were just going to a concert. We had no idea it would change everything. What started as two Puerto Rican women trying to find their people became a growing community of Puerto Ricans and Dominicans across Australia. From WhatsApp groups and concerts to parties, new friendships and families finally finding each other, this episode is about creating community instead of waiting for it. This isn't just a concert recap. It's a conversation about belonging, identity, culture, courage, and finally finding home on the other side of the world. In this episode, we talk about: • how Bad Bunny's tour unexpectedly united Puerto Ricans across Australia • what happened when we realised there were far more of us than we imagined • why community doesn't happen by accident • what this experience taught us about belonging and connection Whether you're Puerto Rican, Latino, living overseas, or searching for your people, this is a reminder that sometimes one person willing to bring people together can change everything. 🎥 WATCH THE FIRST EPISODE Before this community came together, Yadi and I sat down to talk about Puerto Rican identity, diaspora, cultural grief, and what it means to carry your roots while building a life in Australia: https://youtu.be/2Z3D36sK4fI?si=f8QHupwyGE2g2N57 READY TO BUILD YOUR AUTHORITY, CONFIDENCE & PERSONAL BRAND? 📖 GET ERIKA'S BOOKS → Becoming Magnetic (Penguin Random House, 2025) → Confidence Feels Like Shit (2020) Available here: https://shop.thequeenofconfidence.com/collections/book Amazon, Barnes & Noble or any audiobook app 📩 GROW YOUR FANBASE — Learn the timeless skill that turned my 1,000 followers into a 7-figure global business → https://courses.thequeenofconfidence.com/offers/TKhTxM3n/checkout ♟️ The Queen's Table My high-level mentorship for women ready to step into leadership, visibility and legacy. → https://thequeenofconfidence.com/the-queens-table/ ✨ The Next Level Build your confidence, audience and income. → https://thequeenofconfidence.com/the-next-level/ 🎤 BOOK ERIKA TO SPEAK → For keynotes, corporate events, and women's leadership conferences in Australia and the USA: https://thequeenofconfidence.com/speaking/ 📲 FOLLOW ERIKA → Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thequeenofconfidence/?hl=en → LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erika-cramer-queenconfidence/ → Website: https://thequeenofconfidence.com/about/ → TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thequeenofconfidence 👑 LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE TO THE CONFIDENCE CHRONICLES → Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2MUxtupRLNGB8cuNC9mwXI → Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-confidence-chronicles/id1439434022 → YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtf2VIsUYg-vkERa16r_VcFNz3Bt6kLI → All platforms: https://thequeenofconfidence.com/podcast/ 🙏🏽 ENJOYED THIS EPISODE?

  • Fear Can Become Your Greatest Teacher

    Fear Can Become Your Greatest Teacher
    Aug 3 2026
    I had someone ask me recently: "What are you actually scared of?" And it made me realise something... I'm scared all the time. Not because I'm doing something wrong. Because I'm constantly building, creating and stepping into bigger rooms. In this episode, I share why fear has become one of my greatest teachers, how I've stopped seeing it as something to avoid, and why the opportunities you're dreaming about are almost always hiding on the other side of uncertainty. If you've been waiting to feel confident before making your next move, this conversation is exactly what you need. In this episode: • why confidence doesn't come before courage • how to use fear as fuel instead of letting it stop you • why uncertainty is part of creating anything meaningful • the mindset shift that helps you focus on possibility instead of worst-case scenarios You don't need to eliminate fear. You simply need to stop believing it means you shouldn't go for it.

  • I Broke a Generational Pattern With My Son

    I Broke a Generational Pattern With My Son
    Jul 27 2026
    Last night, something happened with my son that I'll never forget. What started as tears over something seemingly small turned into one of the most healing moments I've ever experienced as a mother. Not just for him. For me. As someone who grew up with trauma, I realised in that moment I wasn't just parenting my son. I was re-parenting the little girl inside of me who never had someone help her process her emotions. It reminded me that every therapy session, every difficult conversation, every tear, every breakthrough and every piece of healing work I've done over the years wasn't just changing my life. It was changing the way my children experience theirs. If you're a parent, or you're doing the work to heal from your own childhood, I hope this episode reminds you that your healing matters more than you know. In this episode: • the emotional moment that completely shifted the way I saw my own healing • why regulating your nervous system is one of the greatest gifts you can give your children • how breaking generational patterns happens in everyday parenting moments • the lesson that left me crying in the shower with gratitude If this episode resonated with you, send it to another parent who needs this reminder.

  • How to Build an Audacious Personal Brand (Even If You're Scared to Be Seen)

    How to Build an Audacious Personal Brand (Even If You're Scared to Be Seen)
    Jul 20 2026
    You don't build a powerful personal brand by waiting until you feel confident. You build it by being audacious enough to show up while you're still scared. In this episode, I'm sharing why audacity, not confidence, is the real reason some people create incredible opportunities while everyone else stays stuck waiting to feel ready. If you've been holding yourself back because you're worried about what people think, you're second-guessing yourself, or you're waiting for the "perfect" time, this conversation is for you. Your personal brand isn't built by playing it safe. It's built one brave decision at a time. We talk about: why audacity is the real foundation of a powerful personal brand how to become magnetic by showing up before you feel ready what it actually feels like to build confidence in real time why your biggest opportunities are waiting on the other side of courage If you're ready to become impossible to ignore, this episode is for you.

    Why You Keep Comparing Yourself (And It’s Ruining Your Confidence)
    Jul 6 2026
    Have you ever looked at someone online and wondered why they're so much further ahead than you? In this episode, Erika shares why comparison is one of the fastest ways to destroy your confidence and why most of us are comparing completely different lives without even realising it. From age and motherhood to money, support systems and life experience, there are countless factors we never see behind someone's success. Yet we compare ourselves anyway. This conversation is a reminder to stop measuring your life against someone else's timeline and start focusing on building your own. We talk about: why comparison without context is keeping you stuck the hidden factors you're forgetting every time you compare yourself how social media distorts success and fuels self-doubt practical ways to come back to your own lane and rebuild confidence If you've been feeling behind lately, this episode will help you see yourself, and your journey, differently.

    Why Slowing Down Is the Fastest Way to Grow
    Jun 29 2026
    Everyone is telling you to move faster. Scale faster. Launch more. Post more. Do more. But after building a multi-seven-figure business, I learned that the biggest breakthroughs didn't happen while I was moving faster. They happened when I slowed down long enough to build the foundations that could actually support the next level. In this episode, I share one of the hardest business lessons I've learned, why slowing down isn't failure, and how creating strong systems, boundaries and alignment can become the greatest growth strategy you'll ever implement. In this episode: • Why slowing down can accelerate your growth • The mistake ambitious entrepreneurs make when scaling • What to focus on before chasing the next opportunity • How to build a business that actually supports your life If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed or like you've lost your momentum, this episode will change the way you think about growth. 👇 Let me know in the comments: What's one area of your business or life that needs stronger foundations before you chase the next goal?
