Articles & quotes

"To truly map the state of confidence in American girls, we worked with Ypulse, a polling firm that focuses on tweens and teens, to survey 1300+ girls from ages 8 to 18 and their parents. We found that between the ages of 8-14, girls’ confidence levels drop by 30 percent. According to our poll, boys do experience some bumps in confidence entering their teens. But at 14, when girls are hitting their low, boys’ confidence is still 27% higher. And the effects are long lasting. For most women, once opened, this confidence gap fails to close." Katty Kay, Claire Shipman, authors of The Confidence Code for Girls.

"Confidence increases as people age, and women have significantly lower confidence levels until age 50." Zenger Folkman
