Have you ever felt like you had to hide behind a mask to be accepted?\\xa0

\\xa0

In this episode, I\\u2019m reading Chapter 2 of my book Take The Lead. If you want to start from the beginning of the book, go back to episode 163, but really you can listen to these episodes in any order!\\xa0

\\xa0

This chapter covers some difficult years of my life. We\\u2019re talking about pageants, high school, female rivalry, masks, and identity.\\xa0

\\xa0

It\\u2019s hard for me to revisit the years of my life that were filled with so much insecurity. I did learn a lot from those experiences, but that doesn\\u2019t make it any easier to remember them. However, now I know that I was able to pull through and discover who I really am. Today I connect with leading ladies like you by showing up as myself, being vulnerable, and sharing my insecurities. That feels a lot better than trying to hide behind a mask.\\xa0

Topics covered in this episode include:

  • The masks we learn to wear throughout life\\xa0

  • Reconnecting with your identity\\xa0

  • Messages we internalize about ourselves as children\\xa0

  • Finding your authenticity\\xa0

\\xa0

If you\\u2019re ready to take off your mask and show up as your true self, I think you\\u2019ll love this episode.\\xa0
