Reviews

Enthusiasm bursts out of this book, as Murphy shares her framework for increasing self-confidence, overcoming self-doubt and limitations, and pushing beyond the comfort zone. She shows how her framework is underpinned by neuroscience and illustrates with case studies as well as her own personal story... If Frederique talks as she writes, I suspect she’s a great motivational speaker.
