How to Rebuild Confidence (The Confidence Blueprint: Part 2)


Listen Later

In Part 1 of The Confidence Blueprint, we talked about how to build confidence: what it looks like, why it matters, and what actually works.

But what happens when your confidence takes a hit? When failure, rejection, or self-doubt throws you off?

Part 2 is about how to rebuild your confidence when it's been shaken. I’ll walk you through the exact strategies that helped me bounce back, plus how to shift your mindset when things get tough.
