Techniques like the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Mental Commands were introduced, aimed at fostering a positive mindset and controlling self-doubt and fear.
She further explored real-life interview situations, emphasizing the importance of mindset, attitude, and how one’s approach can make a difference. Each session was filled with actionable insights, personal reflections, and bonus tips that the students found immensely valuable.
The programme concluded with an interactive Q&A session, where Ms. Row addressed student queries and offered personalized advice.
