Yeah. Wow, you're right in my wheelhouse. This is what I care about. This is why I do this work, because it's primal. Like everybody. There's this quote that a client of mine told me. I think it's a Don Miller quote, if you know Don. I think it's Don. Maybe he was quoting somebody else. But he said, something like, we all yearn to be fully known and to be loved anyway.

obviously alluding to the fact there's shit in all of us that we don't want to be public and we're scared to death of and we're irredeemed still and all those things and the devils we fight in our private lives and things we're unwilling to face. We all have that, all of us. Every single human, I would assert, has that.

Why Most Leaders Fail: The Danger of Avoiding Honest Conversations

This is the, what if they think of me like I actually privately think of myself? And then people say they suffer from imposter syndrome. They don't. We just have language for it now that helps me know what I'm still avoiding and helps me know the risk I'm still unwilling to take. So I, you can tell all my language is always hyper responsible. So it comes off maybe kind of harsh.

Um, I don't mean it that way, but, uh, honest truth is always like, you know, harsh, it's tough. It cuts us. And that's the point of it is it's here for us to mold us.

First off, whatever confession you end up making, whatever you say to your group, I always say like the leader's confession is he's the last one to the party. Everybody knows whatever you like are going to say to your group or say to your team that seems so vulnerable to you. They talk about it already. Trust me. They know it.

They, you know, so you're the last one at the party, whatever you're going to decide to finally own in public, they've known it for a long time. So that's relieving kind of, it's kind of not relieving. Um, but I would say that, that like your impact speaks more than your intentions. Um, So but you'll be more free. And this is how this is, I think, the leadership into the next generation.
