Debunking Misconceptions
Misconception 1: Leos Are Attention-Seekers
One of the most common misconceptions about Leos is that they are attention-seekers.

Another misconception that frequently shadows Leos is that they come across as arrogant. This perception arises from their unwavering self-assuredness, which can be misinterpreted as arrogance. In reality, Leos have an inner sense of self-worth that doesn't depend on external validation. Their confidence comes from a deep belief in their capabilities and the desire to lead with authenticity.
