Abstract
Science explains why and how confidence is actually everyone's innate superpower and ongoing choice. Alyssa is the CEO and co-founder of American Confidence Institute, serving as the Chief Confidence Officer. Every day she strives to give real, sustainable confidence to as many people as possible by using basic brain & social science to explain how confidence works inside our brains and impacts our behaviors. Her journey has included being a Chief Marketing Officer, entrepreneur, and consultant. Her inspiration sparked through her son's diagnostic of a lifelong neurological disability. She found maternal fearlessness to ask cross-disciplinary questions and seek non-traditional medical solutions that not only cured her son, but proved to dramatically boost anyone's confidence.
