This was a day in my life as CEO & Founder of koreanveganbeauty
For most of my life, I hid the fact that I love the color pink, I love pretty dresses with flowers and lace trim, I love it when my hair curls just the right way, I love a good lip balm. Because I thought this made me immature or unserious.
I thought being too “feminine” made me a bad leader.
In other words, I bought into the LIE.
But, the worst thing you can do for imposter syndrome is BE AN IMPOSTER.
I learned as a Big Law Lawyer that the more I tried to be something I wasn’t, the worse my imposter syndrome grew. And honestly? I could be a decent lawyer while faking my personality. But…
I could be a BADASS lawyer when I leaned into who I was instead of trying to hide it.
I figured the same would apply to building a company.
At the end of the day, what’s the worst that can happen?
I’ll be surrounded by pretty pink things with flowers on them. 🌷
