Building Confidence: Insights and Personal Journeys

This episode explores the theme of confidence, how it can be developed, and its impact on individuals and relationships. The speakers share personal stories about their own confidence levels and influences, drawing from their upbringing, the role of their friends, family's confidence levels, and involvement in public-facing professions. The conversation delves into the difference between confidence and arrogance, the role of criticism and positive reinforcement from friends, and the effects of social media on self-esteem. They offer tips for building confidence, such as self-reflection and placing value on criticism from those you respect and aspire to be like, rather than from negative or unsupportive sources.
