Ep 18 | When Your Strengths Are Misunderstood

You’re direct - and they say you’re cold. You’re steady - and they say you’re not passionate enough. If you’ve ever felt misunderstood in your leadership, your relationships, or simply in how you show up, this episode is for you. In this episode of Tutum Talk, Cara explores what happens when your natural strengths are mislabeled, flattened, or filtered through other people’s expectations - and the quiet toll that takes over time. Together, we unpack why misunderstanding is so common for thoughtful, values-driven leaders, and how to reclaim the truth of who you are without shrinking, hardening, or over-explaining yourself. This is a conversation about self-trust, internal alignment, and remembering that your strengths were never the problem - even when the story being told about them suggests otherwise. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Have you ever been told you’re too direct, too calm, or not expressive enough - even though you know how deeply you care? In this episode, Cara holds space for leaders and givers who feel quietly misunderstood. Those who lead with steadiness instead of urgency. Those who bring consistency instead of performance. Those whose strengths are often misread in cultures that prize speed, volume, and constant reassurance. This episode explores: • Why strengths are so often misunderstood in workplaces and relationships • How mislabeling can slowly erode self-trust and confidence • The hidden cost of over-explaining, over-functioning, or self-editing to be accepted • What it really means to reclaim your strengths without defensiveness • How internal alignment matters more than universal understanding Cara also shares how community plays a vital role in this reclamation - and why spaces where you don’t have to translate yourself are so deeply healing.
