I really enjoyed the video. I have always had an issue with a lack of confidence in my work and personal life and have come a long way in that respect, but it always helps to relearn important factors like the video discussed. Hearing him explain each component really helped me understand. He was very knowledgeable about the topic and positive.

This is an excellent course! Especially great if you're a people pleaser who says yes to everything. He gives great advice and examples on how to say no and navigate difficult conversations. I'll retake this every year as a refresher.
