Hello Reader,
Letâs have an honest momentâ How many times have you heard, âJust be authentic"
when your content wasnât landing?
When your audience wasnât responding?
When you were pouring your heart out and still⌠feeling invisible?

And did that help you? Yeah, probably not!
I get why âauthenticâ became the golden rule. It was meant to free us from the filters, the fake it âtil you make it, the corporate-sounding captions. But somewhere along the way, it got twisted.
Now? âAuthenticâ has turned into a vague, BS filled band-aid that people throw out with no explanation to apparently fix everything.
Hereâs the part no one tells you:
Being authentic wonât build your brand.
Being real doesnât mean being ready.
Vulnerability without clarity is just noise.
If youâre showing up online as âyourself,â but youâre not seeing results? That doesnât mean youâre doing it wrongâit means you need to add structure, not strip away your personality.
So what do you do instead?
You focus on being:
Intentional â with what you share, and how you share it
Aligned â so your message matches your mission
Memorable â because blending in is not the goal
That doesnât mean you have to âperformâ or put on a mask. It just means you get to own your presence, curate your content with purpose and show up like the version of you your dream clients are ready to invest in.
Youâre not building a diary. Youâre building a brand. And your audience doesnât need a behind-the-scenes meltdown to connect with you. They need to see your leadership, your clarity, and your confidence.
Thatâs not fake. Thatâs strategy.
The next time you feel pressure to âbe more authentic,â ask yourself instead: Am I being clear? Am I being intentional? Am I being seen the way I want to be remembered?
Because âauthenticâ is a start. But itâs not the finish line.
Youâre not just here to be real. Youâre here to be undeniable.
