Con confianza

🧠 What it means

This is one of those lovely Mexican hospitality chunks. And it goes hand in hand with the mi casa es su casa vibe that many Mexicans have when inviting guests into their home. We English speakers could probably learn a thing or two ;) Anyway, you use con confianza when you want someone to feel comfortable and relaxed (i.e., not awkward!) about asking for something. It means something like: 👉 don’t be shy / feel free 🏠 Just think of it as part of the whole mi casa es su casa mentality and you’ll be golden.

🌪️ When to whip it out

When you want someone to feel comfortable asking for something:

Oye... y pide lo que quieras, ¿eh? Con confianza.
Hey, and order whatever you want, okay? Don’t be shy.
Si necesitas algo, dime. Con confianza.
If you need anything, just tell me. Don’t be shy.
Pásale, con confianza.
Come in, make yourself at home.
Agarra lo que quieras del refri, con confianza.
Take whatever you want from the fridge, don’t be shy.
