And also, to balance… You learn how to be confident without being too aggressive, and you learn how to be humble without being passive.”   “When you stimulate your life with kindness on a regular basis, it has a biological, psychological and physical change that you will find in your personal life and your professional life and in your mental health.”    Learn more about Adrienne:   https://www.newsnationnow.com/   https://www.newsnationnow.com/author/adrienne-bankert/   https://www.instagram.com/abontv/?hl=en
