Find Out Loud

You don’t need to be an expert to talk about or show something publicly.

Showing your work in public is not only okay, it’s laudable.

What if you’re wrong? So what? Be like Bruce Lee… be like water.

Take pride in your courage to find out loud and then flow with humility, grace, and gratitude if publicly corrected.

You are your journey. Not your destination. Don’t get married to every rest stop along the way.

Failing in public also gives others a chance to learn.

Regularly failing and learning in public normalizes emotional growth.

I’m a Gen-Xer. I was taught that anything put out into the public must be polished and bulletproof. The fantastic thing Gen-Zers have taught me is… let that go.

Let the messy conversation itself become the end-game. Authenticity is the gold standard. Not perfection.

It’s the pressure to be perfect in public that makes society brittle.
