I’ll tell you a secret: I spent wayyy too long trying to decide what I wanted to talk about for this episode. It’s Main Character Energy season, which means a lot of content around CONFIDENCE has been coming out of this space lately. And I kept trying to shove my message into that same box for today, but you know what? It wasn’t working. And I realized why pretty quickly: I was trying to please everyone else instead of doing what felt in alignment to me. So, fuck it. This is my podcast. I can do what I want. And I want to talk about what happens when we try to shrink ourselves into a box to please others instead of focusing on pleasing OURSELVES. I practice what I preach, and I’m demonstrating that shit today. So maybe this lands for you, maybe it doesn’t, but I’m not doing it for you…I’m doing it because it pleases ME. And that’s what you should start doing, too, loves.   WORK WITH MICHELLE:  Join Main Character Energy, a 6-week course on becoming the main character of your life and stepping into delusional confidence: https://michellepanning.com/main-character-energy  Join The Connected Woman EXPERIENCE: https://michellepanning.com/the-connected-woman-experience Apply for 1:1 mentorship: https://form.jotform.com/230497122673457  Ready to do the work?
