confidence boost
Shot of assurance
A confidence boost is something that increases your self-assurance or belief in your abilities.
It can come from external validation—a compliment, a success, a good hair day—or from internal shifts like mastering a new skill: Getting the promotion was the confidence boost she needed.
The phrase often appears with verbs like give, get, or need.
