Your quiz results
You're always "on." Your listeners can't find the real you.
Watch the video first, then keep reading.
What you're great at
The gap
Polished. Upbeat. Professional. Exactly what the moment calls for.
A performance. Too bright, or too cool. Either way, they can't get close, so they don't fully trust you.
"Happy Monday! Everything is wonderful!" Ramped up, because someone told you to be on.
Correct and polished, with bulletproof glass between you and everyone else.
What it's costing you
When I can't get past the glass, I don't know how you really feel about my project, my problem or my money. So I don't trust you with it. You did everything "right," and I still went with someone who felt real.
You learned this mask to protect yourself. It became muscle memory. Now it feels like you, which is exactly why you can't hear it.
Everyone else can. And they make decisions about you based on it, before they ever fully hear your words.
I can tell you a lot about this mask. I can't tell you how it sounds in your voice until I hear it.
