Hey Friend, its your coach, Katya!
Many men have been taught that to lead means to have everything figured out, to have it all together...
They think that leaders aren’t allowed to make mistakes, and have to be strong at all times.
This is not leadership
This is striving for perfection.
This is the fear of making mistakes because if you make a mistake you will be deemed "bad”, if you don't perform your won't be "enough" and ultimately this comes from childhood wounding and a false paradigm of masculinity.
Leadership imho is really knowing yourself and allowing yourself to “be” just...as...you...are
To operate in the world, to contribute to others, to give of yourself from a place of self-acceptance, self-knowledge and self-love.
Leadership might mean taking the reigns because you’re compelled to and you are deeply connected to the dynamic you have with a date or a partner.
Leadership is also knowing when to let go
Knowing when to co-lead
Leadership might mean learning from your partner, because you know that they are better equipped at taking the reigns in a particular domain or situation.
It could simply mean asking a woman to choose a restaurant for your date because you're dining out in her hood and you know nothing about the area!
What if you didn't have it all together?
What if you were the imperfect leader?
Who might you choose to allow yourself to be?
💜
with gratitude,
Katya |
