Season 3 is over, thanks for listening! For more of The Forward Theory, please subscribe to my Substack at https://theforwardtheory.substack.com . -------- Confidence doesn’t come first—movement does. The Forward Theory is a podcast about building self-belief through action. Hosted by writer, runner, and mindset geek Sam Abousalbi, each episode explores the feedback loop that changed everything: Movement → Confidence → Momentum → More Confidence → Movement. If you’re feeling stuck, stalled, or like you’re always starting over, this show will help you shift your mindset, rebuild trust in yourself, and start creating real momentum one step at a time. You don’t need to be ready. You just need to move. (Formerly "Super Awesome You" and "Super Awesome Runner")
