Have you ever had lunch with a friend who kept talking about her weight and diet, and then you started to question your lunch order and weight and diet? Sometimes we adopt others\\u2019 insecurities and don\\u2019t even realize it. A pivotal part of our confidence journeys has been realizing when we\\u2019ve taken on others\\u2019 insecurities as our own. Today we\\u2019re sharing stories from throughout our lives where our confidence was challenged because of other people\\u2019s opinions and insecurities, and how we persevered to protect and practice our own self confidence. At the end of this episode we\\u2019ll share tangible tips to help you if you\\u2019ve found yourself in similar situations.
