But when your following explodes and your content is shared to so many people with differing perspectives - it’s bound to be misinterpreted, and honestly, you’re going to eff up. So how do we balance fully showing up in our truth, with the fear and criticism that comes with sharing your point of view? Dr. Janine Kreft, the viral content creator of @kreftscouch on IG and TikTok, knows well what it’s like to experience the “fame” of social media, and on this episode, joins The Conscious Leadership Podcast to share what she’s learned while growing a huge online community.</p> <p>In our discussion, we dig into the highs and lows of growing a social following, how to get over the fear of sharing your voice, and the things that have helped us put ourselves out there in an authentic way.
