Varian Brandon: Committed to Truth

When it comes to getting clear and committing to your truth, what do you think is involved? And if you’ve spent your whole life pleasing others and doing what you think they’d want you to do instead of what your truth tells you to do, then how do you change?

According to Varian Brandon, a transformational business and leadership coach and an expert in helping her clients stand boldly in the truth of who they are, you’ve first got to tell yourself the truth.

For Varian, the equation of power is Truth2 + Voice = Power. Truth2 means truth to yourself first, then truth to others. For many of us, we won’t even tell the truth to ourselves, which makes it impossible to tell the truth to others.

In today’s episode, Varian and I unpack this idea of Truth2 and get into how she became committed to truth. Join us as we cover everything from Princess Diana to setting personal boundaries.

Committed to Truth Takeaways

  • Unprocessed pain always becomes a part of your personality. – Varian Brandon
  • We don’t know people. We think we know people by what they look like, what they do and where they come from, but we don’t know people at all. – Varian Brandon
  • You have a choice not to like me and it doesn’t mean I’m bad. It just means that you’re exercising your choice. – Varian Brandon
  • I’m not a selfish person, but I am a self-first person. – Varian Brandon
  • I’m not attached to money and because I’m not, it has no leverage. – Varian Brandon
  • Truth is about awareness – you don’t automatically have to go to judgment. – Varian Brandon
  • Tell the truth to yourself knowing that then you get to decide what you want to do with that truth – if anything. – Varian Brandon
  • The most powerful thing you can do is look at your own truth and not turn away. – Varian Brandon

Truth is about awareness, not judgement. Given that statement, can you appreciate your truth more? Does it change what you tell yourself? Oftentimes, we tell the truth and then go immediately into judging whether it’s good or bad.

What if you suspended that judgement? How would that change your truth? Let us know in the comments below.
