don't ever be afraid of being too much. Not everyone will like you. I'm not saying go out and be

obnoxious, be over the top, shove your energy on other people. That's gross. Have some discernment.

But if all you're doing is showing up as yourself, that's everything.

Not everyone will like you.

And that is okay.

If you're too loud, you're too driven, you're too emotional, you're too opinionated.

Girl, I have been told it all.

And I know because I have tested the waters and I spent so many years in this business

trying to figure out how to just be well liked by everybody.

And it is actually impossible.

It is so impossible.

And the reality is the less I showed up as myself, the less impact I was able to have.

Hey guys, it's Rach. Welcome to the show. I'm so glad that you're here with us today. And I have a

favor, which sounds kind of harsh if we just met, but I'm assuming that most of you have been a part of

this community for a hot minute. And so I got to ask, are you subscribed to the podcast?

Subscribing to the podcast you listen to regularly is one of the best things that you

can do for hosts like me. It helps to support the show and the staff that works on it. It ensures

that you never miss an episode when we drop a new one. And here's a cool thing about subscribing.

If you do it, and then you hate this show, just unsubscribe. It's one click away.

In the meantime, if you're listening, we would so appreciate it if you would just tap that

button and make it official.

Hi, guys, it's Rach. Welcome to another episode of the show and kicking off a little something new for our summer season.
