Deep dives

The Nature of Confidence

Confidence is described as a skill that can be cultivated, not an innate trait reserved for a select few individuals. Many people grow up believing that confidence is exclusive to those who appear naturally outgoing or self-assured, but this belief is misleading. By recognizing that confidence can be practiced and developed, individuals can begin to redefine their understanding of self-worth. This transformative approach empowers people, especially women, to confront negative self-perceptions and societal expectations about self-esteem.
