Developing Self Confidence & Self Esteem
Everyone has their own definition of confidence, but when asked, women often touch on some common themes, including: having faith in your ability and pushing through self-doubt; being able to turn your skills into actionable positive steps; understanding that failure is part of progress; and being comfortable with self. Self esteem comes from the inside out. It means that a woman is not dependent upon anyone else to make her feel good about herself, because she already knows she's fine just the way she is. She is confident and aware of her strengths and abilities. She wants to share them with others. Cultivating higher self-esteem is important as it can benefit your well-being and positively affect your relationships, health, and career. Women can have a particularly difficult time developing and maintaining self-confidence. They tend to focus more on caring for others rather than themselves.
