"Debunking the Confidence Myth - getting real about confidence"
Growing up, we were all sold a myth about confidence. You know the one—how it magically appears once we achieve something big in life. Or that we can simply “think” confident thoughts and suddenly, boom, we’ve got it. The truth? That’s a lie. Confidence isn’t a switch you flip—it’s a spectrum we move along every single day.
In this powerful, fun, and engaging program, Tina gets real about confidence. She encourages women to own their moments of true confidence while confronting the negative experiences that hold them back.
Her core message? Confidence isn’t a solo journey—it’s a team sport. Tina emphasizes the power of lifting each other up through genuine compliments and support, showing that when we rise together, we all become stronger and more confident than ever before.
