Parul Sharma
I am a Soulful Confidence Coach on a mission to help ambitious, driven women unearth their limiting beliefs and step into their power. Self-doubt, a lack of self-confidence, struggling to draw boundaries (or saying no), perfectionism and constantly trying to live up to others' expectations can often derail us from our own dreams and desires, contributing to feelings of anxiety and overwhelm. I work with women who are tired of playing small and are ready to shatter their fears and self-doubt, so they can express themselves confidently at work and in the relationships.
