Own the room. Confidence has nothing to do with what you look like. If you obsess over that, you'll end up being disappointed in yourself all the time.

Giving confidence to others will come back to you and you'll end up feeling better about yourself.

What is urgent for me is what I want to say.
I can't deprive myself of things because then I obsess about it and end up eating.

Instead, high self-esteem comes from how you feel in any moment. So walk into a room acting like you're in charge, and spend your energy on making the people around you happy.
