Shameless Leadership

514: Stop Faking Fine


Listen Later

Let’s just stop.

Stop faking fine. 

When you’re hurting, let it be known. 

When you’re tired, let it be known.

When you’re depleted, let it be known.

When you’re worried, let it be known.

When you’re lonely, let it be known.

When you’re uncertain, let it be known.

When you’re DONE, let it be known.

Stop faking fine. 

Everytime you fake being fine, you perpetuate this ideal that women should button up and stuff it down and dishonor themselves by disowning their pain. 

This is not only detrimental, it’s downright dangerous.

Model being less-than-fine to others. 

You go first. 

Let them know:

I’m struggling.

I’m hurting.

I’m tired.

I need help.

It is in owning and honoring where you’re really at that you will find the soft places and most sacred spaces to land - where others will be waiting to hold you, arms open wide.
