Definition of Authenticity
- Authenticity is a daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are.
- It requires courage to be imperfect, set boundaries, be vulnerable, and believe we are enough.
Authenticity Needs Boundaries
- Authenticity and boundaries are deeply connected; you cannot be authentic without setting boundaries.
- Knowing what's okay and not okay for yourself is key to authentic living.
Accountability Needs Vulnerability
- Accountability is founded on vulnerability, which is why we struggle with it.
- Shame masquerades as accountability but only discharges anger without real connection or change.
