I just had a mental breakdown (over taking a self 🤳🏽)
6 Days ago I kicked off my personal branding challenge ...
with 3 simple goals:
1) Share more authentically
2) Develop content creation skills
3) Grow my following (by 10k) and attract 10 new clients
(Im documenting the process over ​here on IG)​
And today's challenge...
taking pictures and videos of myself 😅
I wasn't prepared for the internal chaos that followed.
Standing there, camera ready, my brain immediately spiraled into a familiar pattern of absurd self-consciousness:
"What do I do with my hands?" (and why do they suddenly feel like awkward appendages I've never operated before?)
"Is there food in my teeth?" (cue the subtle tongue inspection while trying to maintain a natural expression)
"Sh*t now my mouth is going to look strange in these pics"
"Just breathe... be cool... act natural... (WTF DOES ACTING NATURAL EVEN MEAN?!")
This mental tornado kept building until something unexpected happened.
I laughed. Out loud. At myself.
Just observing the absolute circus of my own thoughts
became the funniest thing in the world.
It's genuinely wild in there.
And something magical happened in that moment of self-awareness...
My shoulders dropped. The real smiles came easily. My energy completely shifted.
And suddenly, I was just doing the thing.
Creating content. Being myself.
The victory wasn't in what would happen later with likes or engagement or even client conversions.
It was right there in that moment.
when I leaned into discomfort and experienced myself newly.
That's the real game.
Making contact with the expanded version of ourselves waiting just beyond our comfort zones.
First singing lessons and now this camera challenge.
This personal branding challenge is revealing itself to be much more about personal growth than I expected.
