Is it really safe to be me?
What has it cost me to have cultivated a life of belonging at my own expense? Is it worth gaining conditional entry into a club where membership is easily revoked? What if the revoking is implicit not explicit, delivered in subtle signals with smiling faces? It’s been a heavy load to navigate. No wonder I’m often uncertain or confused trying to read the room.
My hope is to be so committed to my own Queendom that the sneak attacks no longer land and stick. This is the real work.
Navigating my own sense of safety from the skin I’m in has informed my brand of business coaching.
Aligning your business with authentic self means you get to do you in your business just like you get to do you in life. If you are from a historically marginalized class of people, I bet what’s holding you back in your business has roots in this exact question.
