In this episode…When you wear comfortable clothes, you will be more productive in your work and feel more confident in yourself. Confidence is essential in every woman's life—personally and professionally. In life, you have to identify what you need and take the steps necessary to get it.
The same case applies in business. If you feel the desire to go into entrepreneurship or start your own business, you should go for it. You'll face a number of challenges along the way, but you have to believe in yourself and your abilities.
