During my senior year of college, I began showing up differently. I was more expressive, more confident, and increasingly willing to offer perspectives I had previously kept to myself. To me, I was simply becoming more comfortable in my own skin. To other people, however, something significant was changing. A hall director challenged me to speak up after realizing that the quiet recommendations I whispered to her were often the ideas she ultimately followed. An ROTC colonel questioned why someone with my leadership abilities continued operating in the background. They were not giving me abilities I didn’t possess. They were helping me recognize what was already there. In this companion episode of IN THE KNOW with Tony Reeves, I reflect on quiet competence, professional visibility, receiving positive feedback, and learning to own the version of yourself that other people may already see. Because sometimes growth isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about becoming comfortable enough to stop hiding who you have already become. Has anyone ever recognized a strength or possibility in you that you struggled to see for yourself?
