Motivational Dogfooding
Shit got real on this journey of Contagious Vulnerability this week.
Dark night of the soul real.
Question my calling real.
Honestly, it’s been this way for a little while now. I just haven’t had the courage to go this deep with you until today.
It’s easy for me to be open, authentic and vulnerable when I’m experiencing joy and feeling connected to my highest self. It’s a whole lot harder when I have to speak truth to the darker aspects of my being.
Things I’m really not proud of and would rather not look at much less share with the world.
I’m at a point in the journey of the startup of me where it’s time to take this vulnerability thing to a whole ‘notha level. It’s time for some serious dogfooding.
For the non-techies amongst you, dogfooding is when the people who work at a technology company use their own products — effectively eating their own dogfood — to gain user insights and assess quality by testing out their products in real world situations.
In my case, it’s time for me to take my own wisdom to heart.
To turn my powerful voice of transformation inward and be my own motivational speaker of one.
