In today's episode, Claudia and Sheena Yap Chan talk about how self-confidence is not a trait but a skill, and how she maneuvered this discovery. Her pivotal moment was when a friend asked her "What do you really want?" This seemingly simple question sparked her journey of self-discovery and led her to write her first book "The Tao of Self-Confidence". Sheena shares her experience of growing up as a 7=year old having just arrived in Canada from the Philippines and how humiliating it was not to see one person who looked like her on TV, in magazines, on streets. She emphasises how important representation is, she describes how she pushed through self-doubt and conquered her imposter syndrome. Sheena is dedicated to closing the gender confidence gap through her training and programs, aiming to elevate women into leadership roles across all industries.
Sheena Yap Chan is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, keynote speaker, strategist, and award-winning podcaster renowned for ehr expertise in elevating leadership and self-confidence through media. Her debut book "The Tao of Self-Confidence: A Guide to Moving Beyond Trauma and Awakening the Leader Within" is recognized as one of the top 20 self-confidence bools of all time by Book Authority.
