Listen "Confidence: Part 2"
Episode Synopsis
Today we put confidence in the spotlight...again! In this episode we combined our personal experiences with research on confidence in college. We had a lot to say on this topic so we decided to split our conversation across two episodes. Check out the previous episode for more engaging conversation on confidence! Our podcast hosts in this episode are Terryn Witherspoon, Ashley Larkins, Aaron Woolfolk, Nathan Brown, and Julia Eustace. The research articles from this episode are listed below:
