The Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller!

Ever wonder why some people are magnetic, confident in their abilities, in charge of their own destinies, and utterly at ease in their own skin? What’s their secret? In a word: Swagger.

And no, this is not the old swagger―that show-off, in-your-face, arrogant kind. This brand-new swagger is unshakable, undeniable and utterly unstoppable. And you can have it too.

Award-winning training guru and coach Leslie Ehm shows that true swagger results from your ability to manifest who you really are and hold on to it in the face of all the psychological crap that will come for it every day. Part guidebook, part manifesto, a little sweary and completely inspiring, Swagger gives you the steps to unlock and unleash your personal brand of swagger―one that can never be duplicated or diminished. And you’ll read stories of the countless people Leslie’s worked with who’ve discovered their own swagger and changed their lives for the better.

Forget everything you think you know about confidence-building. Swagger shatters the myths around “fake it ’til you make it,” and shows you how to record over all the negative self-limiting tapes and stop giving away your personal power. You’ll learn how to challenge the preconceptions of what you “should” and “shouldn’t” do, and navigate the professional world with authenticity and badassery.

Discover what swagger blockers are holding you back and what drivers will bring your unique and powerful personality to the forefront for all to revel at and see why Swagger is the new mindset that will bring you all of the success you’ve ever dreamed of without ever having to compromise or sacrifice who you really are.

For anyone who’s ever felt that they weren’t good enough or believed that revealing their messy, vulnerable, authentic human selves could never result in greater success, Swagger will give you a doorway into the kind of self-belief that creates unimaginable confidence and will change the way you live, work and feel.

Your swagger is waiting for you. What are you waiting for?

The Case for Swagger

When I ask people what they want to get out of training or coaching with me, it’s usually that they want to “come across as more confident.” It doesn’t matter whether it’s a leadership, creativity, or communication skills session—people just want to look like they know what they’re talking about. It seems that we associate success with the illusion of having it all together.

Let’s be real: we all marvel at those who can walk into a room and instantly command it. Their self-assuredness radiates off them in waves; they seem so effortlessly in command of themselves, and no one seems able to resist their peacock charisma.

If you Google “How can I come across as more confident?” you’ll find more than sixteen million results, including “7 Ways to Look Really Confident (Even When You’re Not),” “7 Conversational Tricks to Appear More Confident,” and “How to Fake Being More Confident When You’re Just Not Feeling It.” It seems we are so obsessed with looking badass that we’re even prepared to lie about it!

There’s a ton of research reinforcing the almighty power of a confident persona. Just one example: a University of Sussex study recently demonstrated that the “brain is wired to allow confident people to influence our beliefs.1” Holy crap! Does that make the opposite true as well? No confidence = no credibility = no power of persuasion?

No wonder there’s so much focus on developing a “swagger-y” front.

But what if you’re going about this all wrong? What if the time you’re spending to build the bullshit face of perfection you think the world wants and needs from you is actually getting in the way of achieving your real goal? And what if the outward appearance of swagger is just strut over substance, more “full of crap” than “full of confidence”? What if swagger is something altogether different than what we’ve been led to believe? It’s time to shatter some of the myths that keep us from achieving true swagger.
