Confidence Book Excerpt:
We can't talk about happiness without talking about confidence. Deep, real, authentic happiness requires confidence. Without it, happiness rests on the surface. It is fleeting and fragile. If you lack confidence, your happiness may feel forced and fake. You know, the kind where you put your best foot forward. You smile because you should.
When you choose to become authentically confident, everyone around you benefits. We miss the real you if you are not able to shine and to be on fire about your purpose in the world. Your confidence and happiness are gifts to everyone around you.
If you struggle in this area, you are not alone. Many women lack confidence and it can make them feel like they`re failing no matter how much they`ve accomplished in life.
