In their new book, Mika and Ginny Brzezinski set out to create a roadmap to help women amp up their confidence, reframe their narrative and plot the course for their next big act. - NBCNewsBETTER

Perhaps you have given your all to a career field you've outgrown or simply lost interest in and feel trapped by the fear of embarking on a new path. Mika and Ginny Brzezinski say to take your hard-earned experience and those new passions and use them to fuel your confidence.

“Maybe they get [an offer for] something different, something new, something they’ve never done before … and the first answer is ‘no, I can’t, I shouldn’t, I won't,’ and then they go to that safe space,” Mika Brzezinski explains. “Some excuse that feeds into the narrative that things can’t change — when they can.”

The authors explain, “if you know and are able to articulate your value to others, you can more easily land that new job or step into your career.”Act more, think less: It is easy to think of reasons why you shouldn’t try something. Rip off the Band-aid and dive in to job research and applications — you can worry about what comes next later.According to the book, women “are pinned down by a lack of confidence.” Digging deep and finding the confidence to hit send on an application or even a Google search about a new career path can be a difficult hurdle to overcome, but it's a risk with big rewards.

Ginny Brzezinski has made a few transitions over the course of her working career. She left a 12-year Capitol Hill press career and transitioned to real estate so she was able to keep working while maintaining a flexible, family-friendly schedule. Now, after years of dreaming of her comeback career, she has added"best-selling author" to her resume., and to encourage women to find the motivation and confidence to claim their second acts.
