Transparency or Privacy? My Daily Question as a Chronic Illness Warrior.

I am just curious, do you prefer Open Communication or Keeping Some Secrets? 🤔

This isn’t just a casual question for me; it’s a daily consideration as someone living with a disability and chronic condition, striving to transform my life and health. It impacts everything from my personal relationships to how I navigate my entrepreneurial journey as a network marketer/MLM rep.

On one hand, Open Communication feels liberating. Sharing openly about my health challenges, my adaptive strategies, and my journey helps:

* Build deeper, more authentic connections with family, friends, and my team.

* Educate others and break down stigma.

* Find support and understanding.

* Attract those who resonate with my transparent approach.

But then there’s the pull to Keep Some Secrets (or at least maintain privacy). Sometimes, sharing everything can lead to:

* Unwanted advice or pity.

* Feeling overexposed or defined solely by my condition.

* The emotional labor of constantly explaining myself.

* Protecting my energy for what truly matters.

For all of us – entrepreneurs, parents, healthy individuals – working on transforming our lives, we constantly weigh how much of our personal battles, strategies, or even vulnerabilities to share. There’s a delicate balance between authenticity that fosters connection and privacy that protects our peace.

What’s your take on this balance, especially as you build your business or nurture your family?
