    Creating True Confidence

    Creating True Confidence

    My guest, Jonny Pardoe, is a Self-Esteem and Confidence Coach, Neuro-encoding Specialist, Top 1% Podcaster, and somewhat of a fitness fanatic. He shares his personal story on how he overcame self-esteem challenges. Besides having a cool accent - I think you'll love the tips he shares on building confidence (without the need to put on a 'fake-it-till-you-make-it' persona).

She Walks Her Talk

Barbara exercises her inner bold with every podcast episode. She skillfully interviews guests who bring solid insights into what it means to be bold in the face of everyday challenges. I recommend you listen to her first episode first so you know what you’re in for. It’s quite a ride! — Marylyn King, Chief Message Maker at TheExpertOfChoice. com
