RISE AND REFINE

Letting Go of Being Liked, Even When It Feels Personal


Listen Later

If you've ever held yourself back because you were afraid of being judged or not liked—this episode is for you. As founders and leaders, it's easy to shape-shift to fit every room we walk into. But trying to be liked by everyone waters down your voice, your presence, and your brand.

We talk about why the need for validation runs so deep, how people-pleasing shows up in business, and what it looks like to lead yourself with clarity and confidence—even when it ruffles feathers. Because the truth is: the right people will feel empowered by your clarity, and the wrong ones will feel offended by your confidence.

If you're building a brand, leading a team, or stepping into bigger rooms that require a bolder version of you… this is your reminder that you don't have to shrink to be liked.
