Let’s close the confidence gap by building a powerful memory.
Memory shows us who we were, who were are, and who we can be in the future. We can apply principles of neuroscience research to build a robust, powerful memory network that helps us conquer small and large goals. By building a powerful memory, we can close the confidence gap between women and men and move forward with courage, determination, and tenacity.
