#7: You’ve Got This! Trusting Yourself with Author and Speaker Margie Warrell
Believe in the power of trusting in yourself – it'll take you far.
That's certainly an underlying theme of Margie Warrell's new book, You've Got This! The Life-Changing Power of Trusting Yourself, a handbook for learning to thrive in today's pressure laden and uncertain world.
This book has been called "a high-five to the human spirit" by author Jim Kouzes, which is a darn good plug if I've ever seen one. And we're chatting about all kinds of ways you can unleash your true potential and conquer the fears we all have – so we can thrive in our careers, relationships, leadership, and life.
