A lot of people are insecure and most of them would likely tell you that feeling insecure isn’t easy and comes with its own set of problems.

Is being insecure just part of your personality or something you can change? Where does that insecurity come from? Joining me to discuss this is Joseph Nowinski, he is a clinical psychologist and author of the book, The Tender Heart Conquering Your Insecurity (https://amzn.to/2VDTfca).
