Tangible Takeaways:We only grow as a person if we’re willing to leave our comfort zone, take risks and try new things. You have to act in order to become confident. You can’t wait until you feel confident before you do something.For opportunities, we have to show up and raise our hand if we want to make a change. Women have a tendency to hold back from sharing ideas and doing things. It takes vulnerability and risk to move forward.Leadership is a learning journey. Leaders make mistakes everyday. It’s important to know when we need to bring in expertise. Teamwork is key. When everyone works together and listens to each other, we are smarter than an individual alone.About Alison Wilcox:Alison Wilcox empowers girls and women to live life fully, intentionally and courageously, through her work as a nonprofit CEO, as a leadership consultant, and as a speaker and writer.  Alison’s zest for adventure shaped her path from rural Canada through the cities of London, Mumbai and Toronto, among others, eventually landing in America with her family.  She looks forward to sharing her stories and learning yours.Connect with Alison Wilcox:Websites: www.alisonwilcox.com or www.birthofadventure.com   Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alisonwilcox/About me:Karen Laos is a keynote speaker and leadership coach equipping women to stand out with unshakable confidence.

Alison and Karen discuss how confidence is built by doing: step by step. As CEO of Girl Scouts of Western New York, she is passionate about helping girls become more confident. We have to jump right in. We can’t wait until we feel confident. We all have insecurities, but our confidence grows when we step out of our comfort zone. Confidence has allowed Alison to have success and take risks in her personal life (like recently: listen for how she took the step of publishing her blog after having her own doubts, and the amazing results that followed!).
