Being authentic is all about me. You. Individual.
Sure we want to be real, true, but also we cannot live in a space all about us all the time.
We need to also show up as a professional.
Serving those around us.
Start with authenticity to find yourself but know we also must show up for other people.
At least that’s the life I’m looking to live. One of a professional. One of service. One of love.
Seth Godin talks about this idea a lot. His episode on Akimbo (Episode “Industry and it’s disconnects” at 24:22 time) talks about it at the end in Q/A segment which sparked my thinking on it.
