Alright friends, I am about to call some BS on a common phrase and word of advice-Fake it till you make.
In this episode, I am calling out this sentiment that spins illusions and bypasses your lived experience and calling in a new one that fosters connection, trust and your personal power to design a life on your own terms.
Fake it till you make it…
Creates an illusion and a false sense of connection
It’s inauthentic and creates distrust
Removes self responsibility and accountability
Ignores the natural feelings that may arise
Dismisses your strength and personal power
While we are at it, let’s call out another saying that needs to go: Faith it till you make.
Faith it till you make it…
Inserts blind trust
Disconnects from the work
Desensitizes your feelings
Pivots you away from the opportunity to take action
Here’s what I propose: Face it till you make it.
Face it till you make it…
Is a radical act of self love because you are showing up regardless and forging ahead
Encourages you to show up for yourself DESPITE the doubt
Acknowledges that you may not have all the answers, confidence or outcomes but you are showing up with an openness and willingness to get there.
Builds trust, acceptance and courage through your relentless and consistent pursuit
Requires imperfect action
What are you currently faking it till you make it in your life?
What can you start facing till you make it?
