We hear very often people recommending us to “Fake it till you make it.” I myself have heard this phrase many times and every time I heard it, there was this inner resistance inside me. Recently, it became very clear to me where this resistance was coming from.So, in this episode, I am sharing my thoughts on this phrase, why it never sounded quite right to me, and a much better way to build confidence that doesn't involve any faking.EPISODE BREAKDOWN:[02:08] How speaking at a panel about Executive Presence within my company inspired this episode[07:47] The problem with “fake it till you make it”[11:40] The concept of the cookie jar and developing the skill of successfully stepping into the unknown[13:41] My personal experiences of stepping into the unknown[16:43] You really don't need to fake anything – here's what to do instead OTHER EPISODES YOU MIGHT LIKE:3 Lessons I Learned at the Yellow Conference 2023 For Living a More Beautiful and Fuller LifeLife Design 101, Part 6: Building Confidence and Leaning on Your Personal Strengths to Overcome Fear and ChallengesEmbracing the Unknown: The Truth about Stepping Out of Your Comfort ZoneSeeking external approval WON'T help you build your confidence – here's what WILLMy thoughts on getting out of your comfort zone, or should you really start before you are ready?JOIN BREVERIE CIRCLE:Weekly newsletter for brave, multifaceted women that are ready to embrace who they are, maximize their time and energy, and shine in both career and motherhood (as well as any other life endeavor they choose to pursue) – SIGN UP.CONNECT WITH OLENA:Instagram: @thebreverieEmail: olena@thebreverie.comWebsite: thebreverie.com SUPPORT THE SHOW!Haven't left a review yet?

Leaders are especially good at hiding from love and the vulnerability it brings in ways that look deceptively bold. This can be a dangerous contagion, I've found, encouraging others to also hide behind the protectors of Hubris. Individualism. Perfectionism. Hustle. I've seen how spending so much time hiding behind who you think you should be makes you forget who you are, what you value, and what you believe. And, honestly, it can crush your spirit. That's why being able to receive love is foundational to being able to love and lead others well. This means moving through discomfort by feeling through it instead of letting the protectors – fueled by fear – hide your humanity. My guest today is a force of love—towards herself and others—in both words and actions. Arielle Estoria is a renaissance woman: a poet, author, speaker, and creative. I first met Arielle at Yellow Conference where she was an MC—a tour de force of love from the stage. I immediately started to follow her work and was moved by her ability to put words to the steady tension of loving ourselves so we can lead ourselves and others well. Arielle truly lights up any room as an emcee and event host, a body-positive model, and actor. She has shared her work through spoken word, workshops, and themed keynote talks with companies such as Google, Sofar Sounds, Lululemon, Dressember, Tedx, the SKIMS campaign by Kim Kardashian, Hollis Co. by Rachel Hollis, and more. Arielle's first EP, a collection of music and poetry called Symphony of a Lioness and her single Magic (In Your Bones) are available on iTunes or Apple Music. She is the co-author of two collections of poetry: Vagabonds and Zealots (2014) and Write Bloody Spill Pretty (2017), which can both be found on Amazon.com. Listen to the full episode to hear: How she discovered her body through acting, performing spoken word poetry, modeling, and calling BS on practices and businesses that do not value all bodies A look behind Arielle's internal work and how playing find the lie and find the truth to see the full value in herself as a person When Arielle decided that her body is not an unhealthy hazard—and what she redefined BMI as in her own words What impact the toxic modesty culture has had on Arielle Learn more about Arielle Estoria: arielleestoria.com Arielle Estoria on Instagram Arielle Estoria on Facebook Symphony of a Lioness Vagabonds and Zealots Write Bloody Spill Pretty Learn more about Rebecca: rebeccaching.com Work With Rebecca Sign up for the Weekly Rumble Email Other references: Yellow Conference
The past often acts itself out in the present and this can be super frustrating for established leaders—especially when it feels like you've already done the work to move past those struggles. I know it has for me and so many of you, too. We've read the books, gone to therapy, hired a coach, and went to the workshops. We've committed to the deep work so that we can lead, thrive, and create well. Sometimes, those struggles and challenges still impact the ability to navigate present challenges and growth edges… echoes of that pain linger within the body and nervous system. But I know that you're committed to life-long growth—and, of course, growth comes with some semblance of discomfort. When the nervous system is still carrying the burdens of previous pain, then resistance spikes to try and protect us. It shows up as doubt, comparison, imposter experience, perfectionism, and so many more. And as much as I'd love to say it only takes thinking the resistance and other internal protectors away, it simply doesn't work that way—instead, we have to feel through the emotions to build our resilience and support the desire to lead with more courage, conviction, and compassion. Today on the podcast, I'm so pleased to welcome Morgan Harper Nichols. Morgan is an artist, poet, and author of All Along You Were Blooming and has collaborated with a wide range of brands including Anthropologie, Coach, Adobe, Aerie, and more. Morgan is an unburdened leader who leans on her curiosity and her appreciation for the layers of what it means to be human. She deeply values the role of creativity to healing from the disappointments that come from living a brave life. Listen to the full episode to hear: How art and music was essential for Morgan's healing journey Why recurring struggles are not a sign of failure or weakness How listening to others helped Morgan find her own language and her own healing Learn more about Morgan Harper Nichols: morganharpernichols.com Instagram Pinterest Twitter Learn more about Rebecca: rebeccaching.com Work With Rebecca Sign up for the Weekly Rumble Email Other references: Yellow Conference

This week I'm sharing a solo show on my experience behind the Yellow Conference and what I learned from being the most effective when it comes to networking and big events. Get full shownotes at www.digimorphs.com/podcast
Since childhood, Joanna Waterfall has been a creator. While her methods have changed some from the forts she made as a kid, her fascination and love for the world has not. Growing up Joanna's parents encouraged her love for art which lead her to pursue it as her major in college. She started working for herself as a graphic designer, but was inspired by people integrating purpose into their work. Looking around at the creative community and seeing an excess of competition and comparison, Joanna set out to create a community where women can be inspired by purpose and connectivity. With that the Yellow Conference was born. I have truly enjoyed getting to know Joanna and I'm so excited for you to get to do the same! In today's conversation you'll get to hear about how the Yellow Conference was created, more on the process of turning a passion project into a career, and of course the Enneagram snuck its way into the conversation (a norm in my life!). Joanna speaks on how empathy can be both her biggest strength and weakness and how it transforms her role in leadership. Joanna's humble, compassionate personality allowed me to take a step back from self-placed pressure and just relax. I hope it does the same for you!

It wasn't always about connection and collaboration for Joanna Waterfall. Before founding The Yellow Conference and Yellow/Co. - which started as a yearly event to bring together creative women with businesses designed to do good in the world- she was burned out and tired of competition as a graphic designer. What she did notice during this time in her life, was that she was constantly meeting other women who were inspiring her to be more creative and heart centered. She would meet them through friends, at random events, or by chance and it got her thinking - 'wouldn't it be great to get all these women in one room to share their stories with each other.' And so begins the story of Yellow/Co. With no experience hosting events or conferences, and only an idea in mind, Joanna launched a movement that brings together entrepreneurs, social enterprises, influencers and creatives to collaborate and connect in a welcoming environment - both online and offline. And as I found out, she didn't always dream of being an entrepreneur - she actually thought she'd be working on weddings (find out what job on the podcast). This is a cool one if you want to know more about building community, event planning, collaboration and how to book high profile guests without killing your budget. Plus so much more!

Joanna Waterfall is teh creator of The Yellow Conference - a community of creative women who come together under one simple vision: to use their skills, talents and resources for good. Joanna created the conference out of her own need to hear other women's stories who were creating their own companies in order to both do good in teh world and follow their own path in life. Joanna's professional career is in graphic design, but her goal is to be able to focus on The Yellow Conference full time. We talk about her goals for growing the conference into an online platform via a Kickstarter, her struggles and doubts along the way and how she has built a community of support around her. Features: Bill Wither's "Let It Be"
