Confidence is something we often notice in other people, **but what actually creates it?** Is confidence about how you look, how you speak, how you carry yourself, or something deeper? Why do some people seem confident even when they’re nervous, while others can be successful and capable but still doubt themselves? In this Curious Mind Forum dialogue, we’ll explore what confidence really means and where it comes from. We’ll talk about **self-belief, fear of judgement, comparison, failure, vulnerability and the courage to speak up** and question whether confidence is something we naturally have, or something we can develop. Come with your own experiences and opinions. Let's challenge our assumptions and hopefully discover something new about ourselves. What makes someone confident and what makes you feel confident?

We’ll begin the dialogue at 16:00 and will be waiting for everyone to gather before we start. Arriving by 15:55 will give you enough time to settle in, meet a few people and be part of the conversation from the very beginning. Please also keep your RSVP updated if your plans change, as it helps us know who to expect. Thank you, and I’m really looking forward to meeting you all and sharing this conversation together. Ana 🤍
