Super cute and easy self help book! I really enjoyed it because it was short! It took me two hours to re read today!
It’s insightful and inspiring! I enjoyed the tone of the book in a relaxed manner. I think it is a good resource to learn about the role confidence can have on your self esteem. The book contained practical tips towards building confidence in your everyday lives. It’s also a smaller book and it’d easily accessible if you’d like a refresher on the content! I would give it 3.9/5⭐️

A book published in 2020 should not be telling you to pop plastic (bubble wrap) to relax, not responsible. Self-care for myself but not for the planet?
Unfortunately moving on from that point, it's just not a very good book (in my opinion).
