Show Up Confident: The New Way To Get Ready For Your Day And Your Life

The secret of how to be more confident is under the clothes you’re wearing this minute. If you know you’ve lost a bit of yourself after a life change, relax, you can return to your brilliance.

Do you know that the clues to the emotions and hang-ups keeping you stuck are hanging in your closet right now? When you learn to uncover them, you can begin to release self-doubt and power up new self-belief.

Michele Charles Gustafson is a master at "styling" your confidence after almost 25 years of helping people uncover their potential. A sought-after expert, she has appeared on Canada's leading nationally broadcasted morning show, CTV Your Morning, as a repeat guest and was featured by a global cosmetics brand for women of color, IMAN Cosmetics, as an ambassador to help women "stay showing up" during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic (April 2020).

In this book, she is here to share her secret that nothing new happens without fresh confidence and that how you see yourself in the mirror either fuels or stalls your self-esteem, business, career, and relationship goals. You can find powerful self-motivation when you master the process.

Show Up Confident is a conversational, part memoir/part practical personal-development guide that will make you want to drop any temporary fix to only “look good and feel good” and will instead inspire you to tap into what you’ve got inside and forever change the way you think about getting ready to take on your day—and your life.

You will learn:

• How to develop strong resilience with a lifetime skill for seeing lessons in every challenge.
• Michele’s three fundamentals that unlock new inner-strength through any transition.
• The remarkable reason your style of dressing connects to your ability to take courageous action.
• How to easily see if how you dress is keeping you hidden from opportunities and success.
• The way to know if your relationships are supporting and supercharging your new surge of confidence.

Get excited to see the beauty in change, the power in transition, and embrace the adventure of resilience, starting with preparing your heart, mind and dressing intention for your day.
