Top Takeaways:

There is not just one type of confidence - there are actually 8 confidence languages - knowing our strengths and talents can help us bring more of ourselves to the world.
Confidence is not a behavior, it’s a mindset - it’s about seeing yourself and the strengths you bring to the table, and turning that mindset into a behavior - ultimately, confidence is the outward expression of an inward belief.
