In this episode, we dive into It's Competence Not Confidence (ICNC) with co-founders Sabrina Carrozza and Gabbie Garbe, a movement redefining how young professionals—particularly women—approach success in their careers. They share the story behind ICNC, why competence should be valued over confidence, and how this mindset shift can create real opportunities in the professional world.
We break down the ICNC blueprint, discussing its mission, target audience, and long-term vision for reshaping career pathways. Sabrina and Gabbie highlight the role of mentorship, networking, and community support, emphasizing how professionals can build credibility through action rather than perception.
As the conversation unfolds, they discuss the legacy they want ICNC to leave and how others can contribute to the movement. They also provide practical advice for those looking to break into competitive industries, sharing key strategies for developing real competence and making a lasting impact.
