Have you worked on your confidence but still feel something is missing or upgraded your wardrobe,felt amazing for two weeks only for self-doubt to creep back in?

In this episode, I'm introducing the Transformation Triangle, a holistic framework that explains why sustainable confidence comes from aligning three key elements: your inner self-belief, your external presentation and your professional brand.

You'll discover:

• Why single-solution approaches (therapy alone, style makeovers alone or branding work alone) might fall short
• How cognitive dissonance drains your energy when your inner identity doesn't match your outer presentation

• Three practical exercises you can implement this week: the Morning Identity Statement, the Signature Piece Exercise and the First Impression Audit

This works to bring the parts of you that already exist into coherence with each other.
