Are you Type 1 or Type 2 self-confident?

Most people think self-confidence means always being in control, nevershowing weakness, always looking sharp. But psychology says otherwise.

In this episode, I explore two radicallydifferent forms of self-confidence:

· Type 1:The polished, flawless image we project.

· Type 2:The quiet strength to admit mistakes, ask questions, and show our human side.

Which one builds better relationships, trust,and long-term impact—especially in leadership and communication?

Let’s rethink what it really means to be confident.
