Imagine strutting a red carpet; flawless, confident, camera-ready…
Many of us bring that same energy into work and life, donning a ‘Red Carpet Persona’ to impress, fit in, or meet expectations.
Sure, it has its place:
✅ First impressions matter.
✅ Professional polish has power.
✅ And I personally love a bit of glamour!
But as a leadership strategy? It’s:
🚫 Exhausting
🚫 Unfulfilling
🚫 And frankly, it holds you back.
💡 When you’re performing instead of being yourself, you disconnect from your strengths, stifle your creativity, and miss opportunities that align with who you are.
🔹 It is authenticity – not perfection – that builds trust and traction.
🔹 Leading from your true strengths fuels energy, impact, and ease.
🔹 It’s the shortcut to success that feels natural.
🎯 Try this today:
🔹 Think of a recent moment where you felt like you were performing – trying to appear more confident, capable, or polished than you felt.
🔹 Ask: What part of me didn’t feel strong enough to lead as I am?
🔹 Then ask: What strength do I need to build, so I don’t have to perform next time?
✅ This isn’t about dropping the polish.
It’s about shifting from performance to real power – the kind that’s rooted in who you are.
