Now That You Embraced Your Imperfections, Can You Add Captions and a Soundtrack? My Guest: Taylor Hayes, @ImperfectTaylor

I can remember the first person I blocked on social media.

She unabashedly took to my comments to give unsolicited feedback, judgment and suggestions. She wrote that I was sharing too much personal information and I would never find a husband if I kept this up. She complained that I should show a better version of myself online “like everyone else.”

And I remember calling my sister to complain about it. 
“Mommy is being so mean to me.”
“You know you can block her,” said my much younger sister. 

No, I hadn’t known.

So when did the generational divide stop affecting how we show up- in real life and online?  
And that’s what we’re going to tackle today…

Ever had to hit the block button? On a family member? Yeah, me too.
When do well-meaning, and even mean-meaning, comments that clash with your self-expression. But it's all part of a larger conversation about generational divides in online communication, which we tackle head-on in this episode. And speaking of authenticity, 'Imperfect Taylor' joins us, shining a light on the beauty of embracing our personal flaws for the world to see.

Navigating the choppy waters of our online personas, this episode dives into how social media has evolved from a highlight reel to a platform for genuine self-expression. We look at how gender norms and societal expectations can skew our online behavior, and why breaking free from those constraints is liberating. Taylor's candid talk on money matters is a breath of fresh air, stressing the importance of financial literacy and transparency - something we could all benefit from.

Rounding out our chat, we discuss the delicate dance of juggling a day job with the pursuit of personal passions and the cultivation of an online brand. It's not all smooth sailing, but the lessons learned in authenticity and personal growth are invaluable.
