Unshrink Yourself: 12 Mini-Shifts to Ditch Self-Doubt and Own Your Life by Thanh Nguyen
Calling the book, "A practical guide to building authentic confidence through incremental change," Kirkus Reviews says that "Nguyen offers a road map for readers ready to start becoming who they want to be."
They go on to say that "The book's strength lies in its clear-eyed realism about what confidence actually is: "real confidence is quieter" (it's about knowing who you are rather than shouting about how great you are)."
Kirkus concludes with a two-word verdict: "Get it."
