Episode 3, Season 2: Confidence is a trick, with Jada Sezer

What’s the key to confidence? Are we born with it or are there tools we can use to boost our confidence? What’s the link between confidence and self-esteem, and our mental health generally? How does how we feel about our body affect our self-esteem and mental health – and how can we nurture ourselves on days when things don’t feel so great? We discuss all this with model, content creator and mental health advocate Jada Sezer in this episode of Body Cons.
