In order for women to be in business, they would already have to innately have some inner drive that allows them to move through the cog wheel. Sometimes women’s confidence can get knocked and from this, we can create harder shells to shield ourselves, ego and hearts. However, there is strength in getting back onto your feet and trying again and again; despite the jabs taken.
In saying that, confidence shows up when self-assurance is part of the foundation of self-worth. Knowing you belong in that space and that nothing or no-one can take that away from you.
Self-made businesswomen tend to have her hardest shells but oh boy, are they righteously courageous. After building and growing your mindset, your experiences, the confidence will begin ooze out of you.
