Confidence on Camera with Christine Braneli; Style, Presence and Polish for Women who Lead

That dreaded word and feeling- failure! This episode takes a look at how we can frame failure in our mind so that we learn from it to become better versions of ourselves.  We also look at how we define success, which is a key factor for getting unstuck.  Too many times we give up after a few tries but if some of the most successful people in the world quit after failing, we would not have light bulbs, books, movies, world reknowned surgeons, Olympic athletes and more.  Have a listen and learn how to stop labeling yourself as a failure and instead become a fighter. You can do this!

The first episode in a two part series about friendship, and perhaps the most important one you'll ever have.  We all struggle with negative self talk and the  self-inflicted verbal beat-down, but that habit keeps us stuck. If we can't be friendly toward ourselves, we won't attract friends who can be there for us in  healthy ways. This quick episode is a brief exercise in things you can do immediately after listening, that will help form new habits and patterns and will lead to an improved self image. Being your own best friend does not come easy. We grow up searching for kind words and validation outside of us. It's time to change that and start shifting our beliefs so kindess starts within.. It's time to be your own best friend.  Are you in?
