They share the story behind ICNC, why competence should be valued over confidence, and how this mindset shift can create real opportunities in the professional world.
We break down the ICNC blueprint, discussing its mission, target audience, and long-term vision for reshaping career pathways. Sabrina and Gabbie highlight the role of mentorship, networking, and community support, emphasizing how professionals can build credibility through action rather than perception.
