Eliza VanCort, a bestselling author, motivational speaker, and executive coach, is redefining how we approach confidence-building. Known for her expertise in communication and self-empowerment, VanCort has appeared on major platforms like The Drew Barrymore Show, PBS, and Forbes. Her latest venture is designed to help individuals harness confidence through actionable strategies rather than abstract self-belief. As she explains, confidence is not something we are born with—it is something we cultivate through intentional behaviors.
VanCort’s work echoes the central message of her book, A Woman’s Guide to Claiming Space, which encourages individuals to step into their power unapologetically. She emphasizes that confidence should not be about shrinking to accommodate others but about embracing one's unique strengths. Through her new course, she hopes to equip people with the tools they need to navigate a world that often pressures them to minimize their presence.
This week you’ll learn why Eliza thinks the way we’re taught to build confidence is backwards, how her daughter's honest criticism transformed her keynote talks, and how she aims to build stronger communication within corporations.
