Feel like you’re the only one still figuring things out?
You’re not broken, you’re evolving. And in this episode, we’re busting the myth that real leaders always have their shit together.

Whether you’re a first-time founder or a seasoned CEO, there’s a quiet pressure to show up polished and certain. But here’s the truth: leadership isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence, integrity, and embracing the messy middle.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what it actually looks like to lead while still figuring things out. I'll share my journey through the lens of my 4/6 Human Design profile. You’ll hear about the three life phases of the 6th line, the internal battle between being seen and being ready, and how your Human Design profile can give you permission to show up as you are (not as who you think you’re supposed to be).

🔍 Topics we dive into:

• The myth of the polished, always-in-control leader

• How perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and isolation sneak into leadership

• Why even top leaders feel messy and uncertain sometimes

• A deep dive into my Human Design profile

• The 3 life phases of a 6th line and what they reveal about your growth

• How to use your Human Design profile to lead more authentically

• What it really means to be a role model (it’s not about being perfect)

• Reflection prompts for when you feel behind or uncertain

  
  

  Key takeways:

• Embracing your evolution builds trust, confidence, and magnetism.
