Self-confidence. It’s often described as something you either have or you don’t. But what if it’s actually something you build? In this season finale of How to Adult, host Hala Nasar explores how confidence takes shape in your 20s, from the shaky first steps to the quiet strength that grows over time. First, she’s joined by university student Maria Ali Asghar, who shares her deeply personal journey of working through self-doubt, navigating public speaking with a stutter and finding comfort in uncomfortable spaces. Then, Hala speaks to Mina Liccione − a comedian, performer and professor of theatre − who walks us through practical tools for developing self-trust and managing nerves. This is the final episode of season one, but How to Adult will return soon with more skills, stories and lessons for navigating life in your 20s and beyond.
