Episode 72: Letting your freak flag fly: The power of showing up as your weird & true self
Description
✨ Episode summary
Most of us launch a business to do things our way, only to immediately shrink back into the safest, most polished version of ourselves. I did it too, and it cost me.
In this episode, I'm taking you back to my childhood as a 90s weird kid in Miami, and the airport epiphany that changed everything.
Here's what we're getting into:
- The Weird Kid Chronicles, and what growing up gloriously out of place taught me about standing out
- How I built a lunchtime cult following by leaning into my own chaos
- The brutal sixth-grade rejection that turned out to be the ultimate blessing
- The 6:00 AM Houston airport epiphany that changed the direction of my life
- Why my first business name was secretly suffocating my true brand
- The needy trap: Why trying too hard to attract people actually pushes them away
- The silver metallic moon shoes incident and the lifelong best friend it accidentally gave me
If you've been toning yourself down and wondering why the right clients still aren't finding you, this one is for you.
