About this listen
In this powerful and heartfelt episode of The Eminence Project, Briony Liber sits down with Tanya Lawrenson, founding director of Trucks, Machines and Components and Africa Machinery and Equipment, for a conversation that goes far beyond crankshafts and components.
Together, they explore the emotional terrain of authenticity, the cost of masking, and the courage it takes to make yourself visible — especially in industries where vulnerability is rarely welcomed. Tanya shares how her first business became a safe space for herself and others, and how her journey of unmasking has led to deeper human connection, more meaningful relationships, and a redefinition of success.
This episode is a raw and resonant reflection on what it means to be truly seen and how creating safe spaces — personally and professionally — can change everything.
Key Takeaways:
- Why masking your true self leads to disconnection, burnout, and loneliness
- How Tanya built a business that became her emotional refuge and support system
- The role of vulnerability in building trust and ethical business relationships
- Why authentic connection is more valuable than surface-level success
- The emotional cost of keeping up appearances—and the freedom of letting go
- How unmasking leads to smaller circles but deeper, more fulfilling relationships
- Practical reflections on how to create safe spaces and show up more authentically
Whether you are navigating leadership, entrepreneurship, or personal growth, this episode offers a deeply human reminder: being seen for who you truly are is one of the most powerful gifts you can give yourself — and others.
