How to Build Confidence in IT (Even When You Feel Behind)

Send us a text

💻 In IT, confidence is everything. But let’s be real—there are times when you feel behind, like everyone else knows more than you, and you start questioning if you even belong. I’ve been there too.

In this episode of Debt Free in IT, I break down 5 practical ways to build real confidence in tech—the kind of confidence that comes from action, progress, and proving to yourself that you’ve got what it takes.

What you’ll learn:
✅ Why labs build confidence faster than books
✅ How tracking your progress changes your mindset
✅ The power of teaching what you learn
✅ Why mentors & peer groups make the difference
✅ How to turn failure into feedback

Whether you’re new to tech, switching careers, or already in IT but battling imposter syndrome, this episode will help you feel more capable and in control of your journey.
