In this fun and interactive session, Natalie Schroeder, founder of The Bid Hub, will share practical strategies to help you find your inner superhero, even on those days when your confidence gets stuck down the back of your sock drawer.
What you’ll learn:
- Make imposter syndrome your sidekick: turn self-doubt into a strength
- Throw the lasso of truth: set boundaries and build confidence when influencing stakeholders
- Fly up, up, and away: embrace habits that boost resilience and celebrate your wins.
With hands-on activities, real-life insights, and opportunities to get involved, this session will leave you feeling empowered, equipped, and ready to approach your next challenge with superhero confidence!
