just now i'm wondering what you are afraid of when you hold back and not showing up 100 as who you are because you know we're tired of that fake stuff the manicured life everything's curated everything is just photoshop retouch enhance and you have a crap day you don't talk about that so are we doing ourselves a disservice by not just showing up i just want to help anybody that wants to do this of course we have to kind of move at our own speed here is to go ahead and let go who cares and i know what you're thinking easy for you to say because once you've resolved your own insecurities and you're confident enough and you have your business success then yeah it's easy to go ahead and tell the stories about the time when things didn't work out but i think that's where the bravery part comes in and if if i could tell my younger self today go ahead and do it talk about it while you're still working through it don't wait for it to be complete because someone out there needs to hear that story so they don't have to feel so alone and so weird and so ostracized and so strange
