Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

At a young age, Genicca was curious to try new things, sports specifically. Every time she tried a new sport, she realized that she was good at it, and slowly she built her self-confidence. In high school, Genicca went from working in fast food, to working retail. She always considered myself as an introvert, but to her surprise, she excelled very well in sales and found that she enjoyed it. Again, her self-confidence grew in this area. But every time she tried something new, she did have a level of insecurity, doubt and fear. Genicca may not have been confident of herself at the time, but once she gained more experience, she noticed that she would gain more self-confidence.

The “AHA” Moment

Genicca’s AHA moment, was probably a time in her business, she had been working on building her marketing company since she was 19 and even moved to Vancouver to enhance the vision for her company. She remembers working so hard for 5 years to grow her business, and being 24 and having a moment where she thought, “I’m finally where I’ve worked all these years to be. And I thought to myself, WOW, I did this.” Her self-confidence went up the roof!!! She thought that whatever she put her mind to, she could have. Genicca never had more confidence in herself than this moment.

Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence

Genicca has definitely taken more risks. She is actually working on something right now, that requires a huge amount of self-confidence and she doesn’t think she would be taking it on if she wasn’t confident in herself. She also attracted some amazing people who also emanate self-confidence and so they just vibe off of each other which is really good for her energy. Genicca also truly feels like her self-confidence indirectly inspires others around her to feel confident in themselves because she believes we can have that impact on others.
