The Importance of Expressing Yourself Authentically

Christian: Inauthenticity is the fear of abandonment. When you express that, it immediately relieves the abandonment tear. But a little while later, you're angry because you haven't been able to express yourself authentically and your authentic need has not been met due to being inauthentic. So one of the reasons it doesn't feel safe to move into authenticity from inauthenticity is because you're going to have to endure the terrible sadness. Christian: It really is based on your actual conditioning, how easy it is to move out of inauthenticity into authenticity.
