In this heartfelt episode, I open up about a personal experience that left me spiralling and the lessons I learned about imperfection, judgment, and the pressure to perform perfectly as a values-driven entrepreneur.I also share how this moment became a catalyst for change, leading me to show up more transparently in my business and communicate the causes I support behind the scenes. This is a conversation about nuance, empathy, and giving ourselves grace while still doing our best to make a difference.If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough or questioned whether your values align with your actions, this one’s for you.🔗 Resources Mentioned:🌍 Oxfam Canada – Fighting poverty and inequality through women’s rights☕ Prompts to Posted Workshop – Batch a week of content + support a good cause ($5 from each ticket goes to Oxfam)☺ Connect with Kat:* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/socialkatmedia/* Threads: https://www.threads.net/@socialkatmedia* LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kat-tepylo-murphy/ ☺ Free Resources to Help Your Small Business:https://socialkatmedia.com/resources?utm_medium=podcast&utm_source=social-goals
