Friday Apr 18, 2025

Friday Apr 04, 2025
Friday Apr 04, 2025
If there's one thing that most people say they want more of it's confidence.
Statements like:
I lack confidence.
I've lost my confidence.
I'm having a crisis of confidence.
Are all too common.
One of the big mistakes people make when they talk about confidence, is that they talk about it as a 'single entity'...when it is, in fact, multi-layered.
So in this episode, we'll be looking at the 4 main layers of confidence and how to develop them.
If you focus on improving these 4 layers, it'll make a HUGE difference to your overall levels of confidence, in a way that is sustainable.
