Stop bluffing and start believing — in yourself

Our childhoods are full of them; mild mannered every-guys like Clark Kent, who strap on capes and wear their undies on the outside, transforming themselves into world conquering superheroes, never doubting their own abilities.

This construct of confidence as something we wear like a costume, like many of the ideas we are exposed to as children, becomes part of our thinking DNA. As adults we are often tempted to ‘suit up’ to convince the world (or ourselves) of our value. But as confidence coach Lisa Phillips knows, from personal experience, self-confidence, which is key to success in so many areas of life, is not something we don like colourful lycra. It comes from our core beliefs.

In The Confidence Coach, Lisa shows how our beliefs about ourselves are often unhelpful and, like those musty superheroes, fictitious relics of our childhood. Lisa learnt to pulp the life script that had allowed her to stay trapped in an unhealthy relationship, accept bullying in the workplace and struggle through life riddled with the ‘disease to please’.

In The Confidence Coach she shares the tools that empowered her to reinvent her inner-dialogue and remodel herself as a successful life coach — secrets she now uses to help hundreds of clients to adopt the right mindset, empowering people to release the fears and blockages that have held them back. Written in Lisa’s trademark warm and humorous style, and featuring case studies, practical exercises and Top Tips throughout, The Confidence Coach is designed to help you develop inner confidence gradually and naturally.

• In Part One learn how to release your old negative patterns so you can start afresh.
• In Part Two, build on your new foundations and learn effective confidence tips for life.
• Finally, in Part Three, Lisa looks at specific areas where you might need an extra confidence boost, such as public speaking, dealing with bullies, furthering your career, relationships, and body image.

So, if you doubt your abilities, feel anxious about being assertive, or believe that confidence is just a mask you sometimes wear rather than something you really feel on the inside, it’s time for The Confidence Coach to show you how to change your life!
