Claim Your Confidence is Lydia’s powerhouse guide to overcoming your fear and gaining the skills you need to become the most confident version of yourself.

Case studies from Trish McEvoy, Rachelle Hruska, and Zibby Owens, among others, also offer insights and advice.

About Claim Your Confidence:

HOW DO I BECOME MORE CONFIDENT?” is the question Lydia Fenet hears almost every time she speaks to women across the country. Many of us have forgotten what it feels like to trust ourselves, if we ever knew at all. But that can all change today. Navigating a two-decade career at the world’s leading auction house while raising three children, Lydia had her own journey of learning self-assurance. Through her stories of overcoming obstacles big and small, Lydia demonstrates that confidence isn’t something that only some people are born with; rather, it’s inside every one of us. We make it stronger by pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone and facing fears head-on. Get ready to claim your confidence and create the life you want. Claim Your Confidence offers powerful tools anyone can use. From teaching you how to stop negative patterns to slamming imposter syndrome in its tracks; from building up the courage to do what scares you the most to persisting when all you want to do is give up, Fenet offers case studies, insights, and advice to help you take control, reclaim your power, and become the architect of your own life.
