    The Confidence Myth - [Glue Guys, EP.18]

The conversation speaks to the surprising truth that many top athletes and business leaders experience profound insecurity, but what sets them apart is their ability to grow confidence through deliberate practice. Learn how elite performers actually build unshakeable confidence, not from some innate superpower, but through specific actions that anyone can learn.
