#72 Want More Success? Stop Confusing Authenticity with Playing Small | Position yourself for success

About this episode

Are you being authentic - or just staying in your comfort zone?

So many ambitious women hold themselves back, thinking they’re being true to themselves. But here’s the truth: Real authenticity isn’t about staying safe. It’s about owning your space, your voice, and your ambitions - without apology.

In this episode, we dive into:

✅ The hidden ways we mistake fear for authenticity

✅ Why stepping into your power can feel ‘arrogant’ - and why that’s a good thing

✅ How to stop shrinking under the illusion of ‘staying true to yourself’

✅ The mindset shift that makes self-positioning feel natural and empowering

If you’ve ever felt resistance when stepping up, this episode will change the way you see authenticity - and success.

Hit play now, and let’s stop playing small.

Have you ever held back, thinking you were ‘being authentic’? Tell me your experience - I’d love to hear!

Your biggest cheerleader,

-- Susan Veldkamp

-- Position yourself so no one can ignore you (anymore)!
