In this episode of The Genuine Leader Podcast, we dive into the challenges of staying true to who we are as leaders, exploring the tension between self-acceptance and the pressure to fit in. We unpack the impact of imposter syndrome, the stories we tell ourselves about not being "good enough," and how muting our true selves harms our mental health. We discuss the importance of emotional intelligence, creating cultures of psychological safety, and allowing space for creativity, learning from mistakes, and genuine self-expression. Join us as we explore how leaders can set the stage for innovation and dynamic teams, while also reflecting on the leaders we admire and learn from.
