Practical Steps to Becoming More Authentic

Lauren offers practical advice on how coaches can increase their authenticity:

1. Identify what's hidden: Take a look at what you might be holding back and explore whether it’s time to share more of your true self.
2. Ask for feedback: Seek input from trusted friends, family, or mentors to help identify any blind spots.
3. Let go of perfection: Focus on progress over perfection and allow yourself to be seen in your natural state, flaws and all.
4. Embrace your unique style: Whether it’s your wardrobe, your voice, or your way of presenting, let it reflect who you truly are.
5. Use the Johari Window: Apply this tool to gain more insight into your open and hidden areas and expand your authentic self.

Key Takeaways:

• Authenticity is your superpower: Embrace your unique qualities and use them to connect with your audience.
• Be yourself, not a copy: Learn the difference between emulating someone you admire and trying to be someone you're not.
• Perfection isn't necessary: Real connections are formed when you let your true self show, even in vulnerable moments.
• Practical tools for self-awareness: Use the Johari Window to explore where you can become more open and authentic.
• Overcoming fear of judgment: Understand that not everyone will resonate with you, and that's okay—it means you stand for something.
