Overcoming Barriers: How Values and Self-Belief Shape Confident Communication

How do you find your true voice and lead with confidence when you’re the only one in the room who’s different? That’s the question at the heart of today’s episode of Speaking with Confidence. Today, I had the pleasure of sitting down with empowerment executive coach Varuschka Nagesar, whose rich and diverse background weaves together corporate law, global commercial leadership, and transformative coaching for high-achieving women. If you’ve ever struggled to speak up, felt like the outsider, or navigated culture clashes at work, this conversation is for you. We started by diving into Varuschka’s extraordinary journey, from her roots and legal training in post-apartheid South Africa—a world shaped by diversity, multiple languages, and complex cultural nuances—to major commercial leadership roles in the UK, US, the Middle East, and Europe. She shared powerful stories about learning to honor different communication styles, from deciphering idioms in new countries to gaining respect for those doing business in a second or third language. Her insight: real connection starts with meeting people where they are, not just linguistically but culturally and emotionally. Here’s what we covered in today’s episode: • How global and generational diversity shapes communication and trust at work • Why language and nonverbal cues matter—and how to navigate misunderstandings across cultures • Dealing with being “the only one” in the room and turning that into your strength • The difference between confidence and self-belief—and how to build both • How self-limiting beliefs show up, and simple, real-world strategies to overcome them • The role of core values and intuition in major life and career decisions • Real-life stories and mindset shifts that helped Varuschka stop “swimming upstream” and find alignment • Advice for listeners on taking the first steps toward authenticity, fulfillment, and empowered leadership If you’re ready to step into your full influence, communicate more powerfully, or simply need inspiration to trust yourself, this episode is a must-listen. Thank you to Varuschka Nagesar for sharing her journey, wisdom, and practical takeaways. And as always, remember: your voice has the power to change the world.
