Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts! “We realized, as we were sitting around thinking in the aftermath of that first book, that we really think there is something here. When we started to dig into it, we started to see some of the data and we realized there is a gap worth writing about.” - Claire Shipman “Claire and I have become confident women through the choices and the risks that we’ve taken and the hurdles we’ve overcome. We’ve kept going with things and mastered them, and that’s how you do it. The vast majority of your confidence is in your hands, and it’s what you choose to do right now.” - Katty Kay We are at a pivotal cultural moment for women’s leadership and representation—a time, for instance, when all eyes will be on the first-ever female and woman of color Vice President of the United States—and it’s clear that role models matter. Today’s Finding Brave guests are not only fantastic role models themselves for women of all ages, but they have written a new book called Living the Confidence Code: Real Girls. Real Stories.

I’ve been heavily influenced by Katty and Claire in my own work, and what they’ve done is given research and factual data to what so many of us have suspected about how confidence is curtailed and diminished, but also how it expands in the lives of girls and young women around the world, and why that matters. Their mission, along with the stories of those girls they feature, is deeply inspiring and motivating and is helping motivate a whole new generation of female leaders.

Between ages 8 and 14 girls confidence levels drop by 30%. Half of teen girls feel the pressure to be perfect. Girls are 22% less likely than boys to describe themselves as confident. Nearly 8 in 10 girls want to feel more confident in themselves. Katty Kay and Claire Shipman are on a mission to change this. Each of them have incredible experiences as journalists and both are mothers of fifteen-year-old daughters. They wrote New York Times Bestseller, "The Confidence Code for Girls" in 2018. Recently they have launched, "Living the Confidence Code," the book includes real, authentic and inspiring stories of thirty girls around the world between the ages of 8-14. I was so touched by these girls courage to face obstacles, failure, and take the risk needed to gain confidence. This book is upbeat and restores your hope in the world. This is such a delightful conversation with Katty and Claire who were very open about their relationships with their daughters. We talk about what moms can do to foster confidence in our daughters.

"I think Mitch McConnell is one of the most insidious cancerous actors in American politics and he has had a corrosive effect on the functioning of the separation of powers and the constitution itself." On today's program, we are debriefing the 2020 election. As predicted, things are getting complicated, as the country and world sort through the results of the election.
