About Talia:
I am the Confidence + Assertiveness Specialist™. My work is centered around helping ambitious women heal patterns of feeling “not enough” or “too much” that manifest in their personal and professional life and rewire subconscious beliefs so they can increase their self-worth and their net worth.
I make sense of evolutionary and social psychology to help you, in modern-day, understand how men and women approach life and relationships differently. Like, extremely differently. I teach you what makes us do what we do as women, and why we will be disappointed if we expect men to be like us.
