How to Build Confidence (While Building a Business)
Episode description
How do you build real confidence — especially when you're starting from scratch or switching careers?
I talked to Jingjin Liu, founder of ZaZuZu, Education Platform for women, about her journey from corporate life to launching a mission-driven business that empowers women.
Jingjin shares how she overcame self-doubt and still handles doubt, how she built confidence step by step and found her voice when she was in corporate in a male-dominated industry.
Other topics we covered in this episode of Asian Business Owners:
- How to build confidence through small actions
- Pricing your services and your worth
- Navigating gender bias in business
So whether you're an aspiring founder, pivoting in your career or looking to grow with purpose, listen to Jingjin's insightful story.
