You’ve heard it a thousand times: "Be authentic," "Just be yourself." But what are you supposed to do when self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and fear of judgment make it feel like the real you isn’t enough? We know authenticity is our greatest advantage.

Yet, we often let our fears hold us back, downplaying our strengths and keeping valuable parts of our story hidden.
