Redirecting in a conversation before connecting harms relationships. In this segment we address 8 specific responses that are typical in conversations with friends and are redirecting before connecting.

41 WHY CONNECT BEFORE A REDIRECT

We are each hard wired to connect. When we don’t connect it hurts and when it hurts, too often we medicate in a fashion that brings about more pain. Authentically You is a breath of fresh air and in our 3rd year of sharing, we’re just scratching the surface.

Authentically You is the energy behind discovering happiness, joy, and well-being. When you know who you are, you are free to become your true self. Too many people want happiness without the necessary skills and understanding that support the lifestyle of being happy.
