Where does confidence come from? 

Confidence generally comes from experience, training, results … but when you’re a service-based professional, our results are ephemeral. It’s not like we can see our work hanging on the walls like art, or a beautiful, bountiful garden. 

In the absence of ‘tangible evidence’, confidence comes from the stories we tell ourselves. And, let’s face it, most of the stories we tell ourselves aren’t confidence-inducing. 

In this episode I share the insights from the Speaking with Impact workshop series about finding your brag bag stories and using them not just in your presentations, but using them to create confidence. 

Listen in to hear how 

Effective communication is far more powerful in building confidence than we realise 

How service-based professionals, who don’t have physical evidence of their work, can create tangibility through stories
