Strong self-belief becomes dangerous when your confidence grows faster than your competence. In today’s episode, Kevin and Alan elucidate the subtle differences among confidence, arrogance, and inexperience, and why those distinctions are often harder to recognize than they seem.

You’ll learn how arrogance shows up through poor self-awareness, resistance to feedback, blame, and an inflated sense of ability. They also explain why real confidence is built through evidence, accountability, competence, and a track record that can withstand honest evaluation. This conversation offers a grounded look at self-belief, humility, personal growth, and the importance of seeing yourself as accurately as possible.
