What if the very thing you’re trying to protect is what’s keeping you stuck?
This week on The Church of Kreis Podcast, Levi cracks open the unspoken rules of impression management — that sneaky, exhausting pressure to “look the part” in order to stay relevant, accepted, or successful. From Broadway to boardrooms, we’ve all sacrificed parts of ourselves to perform for approval. But what if true creative freedom begins the moment you stop managing your image?
Levi shares personal stories — including the moment an agent dismissed his Tony Award — and offers soulful insight into why reclaiming your authenticity is the key to real joy, real expression, and real connection.
This is your permission slip to stop performing and start becoming.
