Your Cheerleaders Aren't Enough

Your Cheerleaders Aren't Enough

"I really would encourage women who don't feel that bold and confident to develop the circle, the tribe, whatever your term is, of people who can be both supportive but also realistic in giving you information, advice, and support to help you."

Laurie McGraw, Chief Commercial Officer at Transcarent, shares the secret to building real confidence: surround yourself with truth-tellers, not just cheerleaders.

"Just by having those conversations, that actually helps you become more confident. You'll hear different ideas. Oh, that works for me. I actually can say it that way," she explains.

The key insight? Not everyone needs the same advice. You need to hear different perspectives, different approaches, until you find the voice that feels authentic to YOU.

Stop looking for one mentor. Build a tribe of advisors who will give you the cold, hard truth wrapped in genuine support.

In this clip from Inspiring Women, discover how the right circle transforms self-doubt into strategic action.
