Confidence Coaching
Susie shares a bit of her personal story (it’s touching and uplifting) from her teen years and a big reason she has confidence to be the visible, happy, successful person she is now.
Acknowledging you deserve and want more confidence is a key step one.
She explains step 2 and 3 as well and tells us about the book that literally changed her life overnight.
A quote from the book “Always be a front seater” How perfect is that?
The permission slip is there, you really can do anything you want. Use Susie’s method for not letting negative thoughts get traction.
“When I get a thought that is negative or discouraging, I think to myself, no not today. Not thinking that today.”
Confidence is a learned skill. Which means everyone can learn it and everyone can be confident. Susie is helping people do that for themselves. Confidence is there inside you, it’s just about recognizing it and bringing it out in yourself.
We couldn’t resist: The Real Housewives dish!
