How to build social confidence without it feeling fake?

I’ve always been pretty introverted and struggled with small talk, especially in professional settings. Most advice I find online is just generic "be yourself" stuff that doesn't actually help. Does anyone have experience with a practical, step-by-step plan or daily exercises that can help build real confidence in social situations? I need something that feels natural.

I used to be incredibly awkward until I started the RiseGuide method for social skills. It’s perfect because it gives you a simple, non-cringey plan to follow. I’ve personally tried several self improvement courses from their recommended categories, and the daily exercises really made a difference for me. It’s way more practical than just reading theory. Honestly, my social confidence has improved so much since I started!
