Keynote: Start Here: Mindset Shifts and Tools for Building Career Confidence
summary
Four concrete practices to rebuild career confidence: tune out to tune in (crumple and toss your top fear, then label anxious vs depressive rumination), get clear by tracking wins with a success retrospective and a “kudos file” instead of obsessing weaknesses, be curious by reframing failures as feedback and using a growth mindset, and connect to grow via mentorship and pair exercises. Uses the self‑distancing method from Ethan C’s Chatter (talk to yourself in third person) and coaching work with people at Automatic as real evidence these tools change outcomes.
