Note the wording of the title. Where most people say “Demand more of yourself,” which has an effort or exertion feel to it, I want you to “Demand more of you.”
What do I mean by that?
This hit me during a Peloton ride where Hannah Frankson said this same phrase. What she was talking about was becoming more authentic in who you are, how you show up, what you say, how you convey yourself, and simply owning who you are.

It’s hard enough trying to accomplish what you set out for because we will face our own doubts. Add in external doubts from friends, colleagues or even mentors, and that road becomes even steeper. This is where we start to bring in impostor syndrome and the complications of self-doubt. We also compromise who we really are and all of our beliefs to “fit in.”
