Why Invest In Building Your Confidence?
Confidence isn’t a personality trait — it’s a skill that directly shapes performance, communication, and leadership presence. And when you build it, everything else accelerates.
Here’s what the research (and my clients' results) show:
Confidence predicts success. It’s often a stronger driver of promotions and leadership effectiveness than competence alone (Harvard Business Review).
Confidence grows through action, not theory. Tiny, repeated behaviors strengthen neural pathways for confidence over time (Tiny Habits).
Confidence grows by 18–34% when leaders learn how to tap into their strengths effectively & lead from natural talent. Strengths-based development boosts performance, clarity, and fulfillment (Gallup).

"People will tell you confidence is a sort of innate or natural thing, but that is not always true. Like almost anything else in life, it's a skill that you can hone with practice. Building confidence is a gradual process that involves self-awareness, practice, and self-acceptance."
—Law Roach, Image Architect & Celebrity Stylist

“After Rupa & Jackie’s workshop, staff were able to recognize how much they had grown as professionals and articulate that growth to determine where they may go next. Each individual left with clear action items — myself included. Many left wanting more time with both Rupa & Jackie!! They were phenomenal facilitators and incredible listeners, navigating each individual’s concerns in real time.”
— Annie Vasishta, Director, People, Learning, and Culture at The Primary School
“I wanted to reach out to thank you for all of your guidance during our coaching sessions last spring/summer. Our summer planning session, in particular, was so helpful to me as I planned out what I wanted to do and who I wanted to be, especially in such a transitory time after my school closed. Your coaching was the highlight of my Green Fellowship experience and I am so appreciative!”
Caleigh Rockwal, Writer and Educator
“Rupa, you are a true gem. Thank you for creating this Oasis for us bi-weekly to come as we are and share in each other experiences. To find solace and comfort among those with similar lived experiences, and also are willing to challenge our assumptions and beliefs is a rare gift. This was my favorite present of all in 2022.”
Alex LeeNatali, Chief Executive Officer, HealthConnected
"Rupa was so helpful as I began thinking about a new role. She was able to ask me powerful questions during our session and really push my own thinking. Rupa used my strengths from StrengthsFinder to help me reflect on my own career journey and helped me see ways I can use them during the interview process. Can't wait to keep learning from you Rupa!"
