TRUTH THAT’S HEARD
Your voice isn’t missing. It’s just buried under noise.
There’s a moment I see in nearly every client I work with.
They’ve done the work. Found their clarity. Reconnected with purpose.
And yet…
“Why does it still feel like people don’t get me?”
Because clarity alone isn’t enough.
If it stays locked inside, it doesn’t serve.
That’s where expression comes in.
This part of the journey is where your truth becomes transmission.
Where what you feel on the inside begins to shape what others experience on the outside.
But here’s the trap:
Too many leaders don’t express.
They perform.
They’ve mastered the script.
They say what they’re supposed to say, with just the right tone.
They smile on cue. Inspire on stage. Keep it all looking good.
But deep down, there’s a quiet knowing:
This isn’t fully me.
And that dissonance?
It creates distance.
In relationships. In leadership. In trust.
Because people don’t just listen to your words.
They feel your energy.
And they can sense when it doesn’t match.
I’ve lived both sides of that disconnect.
I’ve led boardrooms with perfect delivery—while feeling lost inside.
I’ve stood on stage saying the right things—while knowing they weren’t my things.
And I’ve also spoken with shaking hands, no polish, no armor—and seen people lean in like never before.
That’s the power of congruent expression.
It doesn’t require volume.
It requires alignment.
In terms of models, this is what Robert Dilts calls Capabilities and Behaviors.
The space where your internal truth turns into external impact.
Simon Sinek would say this is your How—the way your Why gets translated into experience.
But again, this isn’t about models.
It’s about real life.
In coaching, this is where we clean up the communication gap.
We strip out the noise.
We reconnect voice with values.
We practice saying hard things with clarity, instead of performance.
Because when you speak from alignment:
- You don’t need to dominate. You resonate.
- You don’t need to impress. You express.
- You don’t need to speak louder—just truer.
And that’s when people finally hear you.
Because you’re finally hearing yourself.
if your words sound right, but don’t feel real…
It’s not your fault. You were trained to perform.
But you don’t have to keep doing it.
Let’s find the voice that matches who you actually are.
And let it land.
You don’t need to say more.
You just need to say you.
