Ah, that giant buzzword "authenticity." We're looking for it at every turn, especially in this highly curated world we live in. We want to see people being truly authentic - meaning, we want to know that their truth as a human being is just as messy, hard, beautiful, joyful, wrecked and full of potential as we feel our own is. We want that permission to simply BE OURSELVES without shoving parts of us under the rug, pretending they don't exist. And we look for other people who are living examples of that permission.
In this episode, I dive into just a few of the many, many waters of the overall authenticity conversation. Having worked with women solopreneurs for years now, I know how many of them are thinking, "I want to grow my business online, but I don't want to have to share everything about myself!" How do you navigate that and also do what it takes to live your purpose in this world? I discuss!
What about coaches and programs with leaders claiming over and over to be "authentic" all while having some shady sales tactics? This one deserves several of its own episodes, but I start the discussion here!
And what can transparency teach us as it relates to our feelings of vulnerability around being authentic online? Turns out, a good bit!
Tune in and share in this conversation by sharing the episode with some of your own thoughts!
