If you enjoyed this podcast, we'd love to hear from you!

In this bonus episode of The Secrets of Learning and Development, Valerie and Julia explore the powerful idea of borrowed belief: those moments when someone sees a strength, quality or possibility in us before we can fully see it ourselves.

Julia reflects on why this can be so significant at career crossroads, especially when confidence, self-trust or readiness are quietly holding someone back. The conversation explores how borrowed belief can shift what feels possible, how to recognise the patterns others may be reflecting back to us and why the real change begins when we start turning that belief into our own.

A thoughtful episode for anyone who has ever been encouraged by someone else’s belief in them, and wondered whether it might be time to take that seriously.
