sometimes I think it's pretty damn crazy how we find it so hard to just be ourselvesโฆ when actually it should be the easiest thing in the world shouldn't itโฆ
I read someone's post and I'm likeโฆ hmm that aint themโฆ that doesn't match the voice I heard when we chattedโฆ or I see a photo and I goโฆ that doesn't even look like them ffsโฆ and I sit there going what's wrong with the real versionโฆ
and obvs I get itโฆ I'm sure to some extent I've been there done it meselfโฆ we all have a moment where we shrink the real bit because it feels saferโฆ

why are SO many people blending inโฆ same copyโฆ same hooksโฆ same AI generated energy bannersโฆ same offersโฆ same bragsโฆ same fakenessโฆ and look I'm not saying everyone doing this is doing it with bad intentionsโฆ most people genuinely don't even realise they're doing it, I reckonโฆ

we've been taught that fitting in is safer than standing outโฆ that following the formula is smarter than trusting our own voiceโฆ that copying what works for someone else is the sensible moveโฆ
and I'm gonna be properly Mimi style honest with u right now because that's just how I roll innitโฆ
even saying this bit out loudish feels a bit exposingโฆ because most people would just quietly disappear and come back when everything looked shiny again and pretend naif all happenedโฆ
I myself have been struggling to show upย a lot latelyโฆ struggling to connect the way I really want toโฆ
because I totes cannot play the performance gameโฆ I cannot sit there writing a fake urgency countdown post when nothing is actually urgentโฆ I cannot pretend a launch or summat is going amazingly when it isn'tโฆ
I cannot comment on stuff that feels false...overly AI-generated from top to bottom...feels like I am speaking to a robot and not a human...
I cannot do the version of this where I smile through it just for the sake of fake a$$ nothingness

so yeahโฆ I haven't been as active latelyโฆ and franklyโฆ it's getting a lot out thereโฆ the noiseโฆ the samenessโฆ the performanceโฆ it's draining meโฆit sucks...

and ur BUSINESSโฆ ur business is not meant to look like anyone else'sโฆ
because the moment u start sounding like everyone elseโฆ u become 4gettableโฆ invisibleโฆ one of a thousand identical voices shouting the same thing blah blah blahโฆ
and the moment u sound like YOUโฆ properlyโฆ FULLYโฆ unapologetically YOUโฆ
that's the moment peeps stop scrollingโฆ
that's the moment they goโฆ ohโฆ SHE/HE/THEY gets meโฆ
that's the moment TRUST actually starts buildingโฆ because trust was never ever built on perfect polished poop samenessโฆ trust is built on truthโฆ on seeing the actual epic AF HUMAN behind the thingโฆ
I've spent years pulling this exact thing out of peopleโฆ finding the version of them that's been sitting just underneath the surfaceโฆ the bit they tend to water down because they're not sure if it's too muchโฆ too weirdโฆ too themโฆ
and every single timeโฆ that's the bit that was always gonna workโฆ
anyways (ooffff that felt good to get off my chest)โฆ
that's a bit of why I've been quietishโฆ and if any of this is landing with uโฆ
