Showing Up and Shining As Your Unique Self

Have you ever been told that you need to change who you are to be taken seriously? Maybe you’ve been told to dress a certain way, or speak a certain way, or even post a certain way, to appear professional. We’ve all felt the pressure to be perfect — but what if that means hiding who you really are? 

Vulnerability and authenticity can be terrifying in a world where we’re expected to be flawless. But showing up as yourself (flaws and all) means shining bright for everyone to see. It means opening up to new experiences, new people, and a new YOU: someone who inspires others to do the same. 

In this episode, we’ll discuss: 

• How authenticity attracts the right people, instead of pushing them away 
• How to overcome that feeling that you’re “not good enough” to be who you are, and what to do with self-criticism 
• The importance of vulnerability — even when it’s scary 
• Embracing yourself with open arms, flaws and all 
• How to prioritize self-care and compassion when opening up as your authentic self 

The world needs you: your thoughts, your perspective, your kindness, and your unique ideas. Let’s practice authenticity together!
