The World Needs Who You Are w/ Rashaan Davis
In this episode, I have a conversation with my friend Rashaan Davis, Assistant Commissioner of the Colorado High School Activities Association, about the power of authenticity in leadership.
How can we genuinely support young people in being themselves if we aren't truthful with who we are? Leadership is often mistaken as a role to perform, but in truth, pretending consumes more energy than simply being authentic. Imagine what we could accomplish if we stopped acting and redirected that energy toward something more meaningful.
Rashaan shares personal stories, like how he still remembers his social studies teacher and the cross-country coach who influenced him, highlighting the lasting impact of authentic role models. We dig into the importance of confronting our own authenticity and asking ourselves tough questions: "Why do you think you have to be this person?" and "Are you the role model you needed when you were younger?" Together, we uncover the path to being true to ourselves and how life constantly nudges us in that direction.
This episode is for educators, leaders, and anyone passionate about student development and empowering the next generation of authentic leaders!
