About this listen

A simple, pragmatic and honest appraisal of how the conditioning of your past may have impacted your confidence. When we think about confidence or lack thereof, we focus on dealing with the symptoms rather than the cause. Focusing on the symptoms is like papering over the cracks or sticking plaster over an open wound. No one is born lacking confidence; we all come into this world with a growth mindset and constantly fail while we learn to walk and talk. So, what changes?

Through her upbringing, personal experiences and research, Yvonne explores the great expectations put upon us and the conditioning you may have encountered that could have impacted your confidence. Yvonne then provides practical ways to recondition your thoughts, take back control and regain your confidence for good.

Critic reviews

"This book is excellent. The evidence presented in it is well-contextualised and easily translatable." —Jamil Qureshi - TED-X and World Recognised Speaker, Performance Coach and Author

"An easy read and a great reference to carry around with you. I loved the use of characters to describe how we both help and hinder our progress; it makes it easy to understand and become more aware of our behaviours and where we want to direct our focus." —Charlotte Graham-Cumming - CEO, Ice Blue Sky

"This is a short, snappy book that gets straight to the point. I found the short sections easy to navigate and was prompted to think about the conditioning I've had, what impact it has on me now and the relevance to how I'm bringing up my own daughter." —Rebecca Monk - CPO, Softcat Plc
