BioKristina Corpin-Moser is the Executive Director of Filipino BC.

Cultural Background

Kristina is of FIlipino, Canadian, Austrian and Jewish descent.

Favorite Self Confidence Quote

Transitions, big or small, are rarely straightforward. They require abandoning the parts of ourselves that feel safe and familiar. It is a massive task to intentionally choose change over comfort. But it taught me to trust myself more and embrace the shifts.

Definition of Self Confidence

Self-confidence is having the knowledge or assurance of your ability mixed with humility and curiousity.

Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

Kristina mentioned that ignorance can be bliss—it’s easier to ignore being told you don’t belong when you don’t know any better or aren’t aware that you’ve been excluded from those spaces.

The “AHA” Moment

Kristina had more than one AHA moment. The first one was when she had the first Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver and it became a success. This was proof of how capable she was in creating something and turning it into a success. The second AHA moment was when a tragedy happened during the 2nd Lapu Lapu Festival. This gave another kind of confidence and it also showed her that through her struggles from this tragic event, she was able to stumble into her strength.

Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence

Kristina still feels some hardships from the tragic event but she also felt the Filipino term Kapwa which means shared identity, oneness with others, and fellow humanity. She witness people taking care of each other and making sure that everyone was okay after the tragedy. Kristina is also more vulnerable and more principled as well.

The One Self Confidence Tip for the Listener

You are enough.

Borrow courage: join rooms that stretch you; mentors and peers are force multipliers.

Do one brave thing daily: a pitch, a boundary, a request. Confidence compounds.

Own your lens: your background is not a detour; it’s your differentiation.

Regulate your body: sleep, hydration, and whole foods make courage sustainable.

As we move into 2026, leadership is being redefined. Confidence alone is no longer enough. Talent alone is no longer enough. In a world shaped by hybrid work, digital visibility, and perception-driven influence, leaders must know how to be seen, heard, and trusted—intentionally.

In this solo episode, Wall Street Journal bestselling author and TEDx speaker Sheena Yap Chan breaks down why visibility has become a core leadership competency and why the VISIBLE™ Framework is no longer optional for leaders and organizations. Drawing from her work and insights from her book Bridging the Confidence Gap, Sheena explains why so many capable leaders are still being overlooked—and how visibility bridges the gap between confidence, credibility, and influence.

This episode explores the seven pillars of the VISIBLE™ Framework—Voice, Identity, Spotlight, Inner Work, Belief, Leverage, and Elevation—and how each one shows up in real leadership environments today. You’ll also hear a powerful reframe on self-promotion, why it’s not ego but responsibility, and what leaders must unlearn to lead effectively in 2026 and beyond.

Whether you’re an executive, founder, emerging leader, or part of an organization thinking about the future of leadership, this episode will challenge how you think about confidence, presence, and what it truly means to lead in a visible world.

Reflection question:

Where in your leadership are you confident—but not visible?

BioDr. Angela Zeng is the founder and CEO of Karviva Wellness Beverages and co-founder of Fulfill Food & Beverages.

Cultural Background

Angela is of Chinese descent.

Favorite Self Confidence Quote

Courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision that something else is more important.

Definition of Self Confidence

Self-confidence is a quiet trust in your values and the skills you’ve earned, allowing you to act with clarity even when outcomes are uncertain. It’s not loud—it’s steady, teachable, and renewed through disciplined action and lifelong learning.

Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

Like many highly educated women, Angela chased perfection: publications, protocols, external validation. As a new immigrant woman in science and business, she often minimized her voice, waited for permission, and believed she had to be flawless before she moved.

The “AHA” Moment

Angela's turning point came during a painful family mental-health crisis that reminded her: healing requires patience and presence, not perfection. She stopped trying to please everyone and started truly serving. She also overcame the fear of honoring Traditional Eastern Healing Wisdom in a society where many still hesitate to trust other cultures. Angela built Karviva around real needs—gentle, low-sugar nourishment—and leaned into my cross-cultural lens.

Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence

Since then, Angela has led with more courage, set boundaries confidently, and measured success by impact: customers who feel better, employees who grow, and communities we educate.

The One Self Confidence Tip for the Listener

Collect evidence: keep a “wins” log: data builds belief.

Borrow courage: join rooms that stretch you; mentors and peers are force multipliers.

Do one brave thing daily: a pitch, a boundary, a request. Confidence compounds.

Own your lens: your background is not a detour; it’s your differentiation.

Regulate your body: sleep, hydration, and whole foods make courage sustainable.

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others, you need to accept yourself.

Definition of Self Confidence

Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

BioGoldie Chan is a creative, keynote speaker, author and cancer survivor.

Cultural Background

Goldie is of Chinese descent.

Favorite Self Confidence Quote

Joy is an act of resistance.

Definition of Self Confidence

Self-confidence is the quiet belief that your voice matters, your work has value, and you can handle what comes next.

Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

Before Goldie learned to be confident, she frequently doubted her value, particularly in the workplace, and she reframed her thoughts to fit into unsecure environments. Life felt smaller: not in a peaceful way, but in a way that muted her joy, her voice, and the impact that she knew she could make.

The “AHA” Moment

Goldie's big AHA moment was realizing that joy isn’t just a feeling - it can be a strategy. And on top of that, introverts can be more powerful than they believe, especially on a platform like LinkedIn.

Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence

After discovering self-confidence, Goldie stopped shrinking herself to fit into rooms. She started designing rooms where others could expand, too. She has spoken on stages from San Francisco to Romania, sharing stories about joy, leadership, and personal branding with thousands of creatives and introverts who once felt unseen. Life now feels like a series of open doors, each one inviting her to show up fully and help others do the same.

The One Self Confidence Tip for the Listener

When Goldie stood on a global tech stage as the only woman speaker, she didn’t just share her story, she made space for others by highlighting underrepresented voices and inviting future speakers from the audience to connect. Her advice: don’t wait to feel “ready” - start showing up, even if you feel timid or shy or introverted, and use every platform to lift others as you rise. Confidence grows when you choose courage over perfection and community over competition.

Yobe Qiu is an author, entrepreneur, and educator. Growing up in NYC, she benefited from the diversity of her community and learned about different cultures. This motivated her to become an educator so she can work closely with students of all backgrounds. After earning her Masters in Education, Yobe founded several private preschool and after-school programs that focus on teaching love, inclusion, and the beauty of diversity. Through working in the classrooms and closely with our teachers, Yobe noticed the lack of multi-cultural resources available for children of color as well as her rich Asian traditions.

Sarah Chung is a Certified Health Coach and NICU nurse. For the most part, she remembers the earliest years of her life been the “fat one.” It wasn’t until after college she realized what her body needed which was real, unprocessed foods! Her journey to start losing weight began when she went to a family reunion. The first reaction she received from family she never met before was laughter. At that point in her life she was in 6th grade about 5 feet and 175 pounds, something sparked in her brain that day, if her own family is laughing at the way she looks, what are other people saying? From that moment up until college, her body weight fluctuated a lot. She initially lost 40 pounds on the 3-day tuna diet. Keeping that off did not last long. She continued to fluctuate until the end of college, late nights with pizza, beer, and chips, the calories added up. She wasn’t fat, but she wasn’t happy with her body either. She would think that after eating all that junk, running 30 minutes a day would burn all the calories off and she wouldn’t gain weight. It did and she wasn’t happy. In the beginning she wasn’t losing weight for herself or what her real issue was. She was losing weight for others and was more concerned about how others perceived her. Sarah's weight finally normalized and stopped fluctuating when she realized how her body felt and looked when she ate clean nutritious foods as well as exercised. She doesn’t deny herself foods that she ultimately wants, she eats it and doesn’t feel guilty about it. Miraculously when she was satisfied, she did not gain weight, she ate what she wanted and started to enjoy food and the way it made her feel.

Sarah shares how she focuses how far she has come which has led her to be more confident in herself. She also shares tips that can help you in your own journey to confidence.
