Top 3 Takeaways From This Value-Packed Conversation

You are your best version when you show up as your authentic self. When you try to put on a facade and lack clarity on who you are, it can lead to misery, broken relationships and a severe lack of results
When you try to fake your authenticity, you attract the wrong people into your circle. Many people have deep-seated reasons for wanting to fit in that stem back as far as childhood. But in reality, not showing up as yourself means you’re surrounding yourself with people who don’t truly resonate with your authenticity, which leads to a false personal brand that can’t establish you as the thought leader you wish to be
When you do fully embody your authentic story and brand, it allows you to bring people up to your level. You have an air of confidence in yourself that’s coming from an authentic source, making you much more attractive to those you encounter
