Does embracing imperfection in your business scare the pants off you? Is your perfectionism holding you back from showing up on social media consistently?

Tara spent months putting out “perfect” content and it was starting to feel inauthentic. She thought her audience wanted to see her professionally dressed and put together… the picture of perfection.

Feeling exhausted with her idea of perfection, Tara threw up her hands and learned… perfectionism isn’t real! What your audience wants is your authenticity and to feel connected to YOU. 

In this episode, Tara sits down with Lindsay to explain how she started to show up consistently on social media, perfectionism be damned!

 Do you worry if you're open about your mental health challenges customers will see you as undependable or choose not to work with you?

Is the pressure to "have your ish together" taking a toll on your business and belief in yourself?

Kristen Westcott is a business growth strategist and founder of The Freedom Track Method, who has spent the last decade in the legal and education fields supporting leaders and students in the areas of goal setting, productivity and project management. After recognizing her true passion lies in serving entrepreneurs, Kristen honed her skills as a Director of Operations. She quickly noticed that what was holding many business owners back wasn’t a lack of drive or ability, but a lack of foundational systems that could support the day-to-day operations of a scaling business. These days, she spends her time helping online coaches, copywriters and course creators scale without the frustration that massive growth often brings.

In this episode Kristen is COMING OUT to the world about her own mental health struggles with depression and anxiety. She realized that hiding that part of herself from the world triggered impostor syndrome and affected her authenticity online and in her relationships ... and she is done hiding.

As Kristen has learned to accept all the parts of who she is, she's no longer hiding behind the facade of "having it all together". She's adding her voice to the mental health and entrepreneurship conversation. It's time for entrepreneurs to level up their own radical self-acceptance and make space for their mental health along their entrepreneurial journey!
