Welcome to part 2 of 6 ways to live more authentically. If you missed part 1 I highly recommend going back and listening to that next! It's okay to listen out of order. But, why is living authentically so important? We can't show up as our BEST selves in our lives if we aren't being TRUE to ourselves. So this episode is meant to challenge how you are showing up in your life now and help you start showing up more authentically. In Part 1 I talked about…

1. Stop pretending. It's exhausting trying to be someone you're not…24/7! Compartmentalizing and presenting a different version of you to all the various groups in your life will drain you to your core.

1. Get Comfortable in the discomfort of vulnerability. There is no authenticity where there is no truth. And there is no truth where there is no vulnerability.

1. The reason why you may be struggling with authenticity is because you're striving for perfection. But here's the thing: You'll never achieve it because the bar always gets raised.

What I discussed: Stop judging others. Whatever negative things or judgements you cast upon others, is usually the ultimate revealer of your own insecurities. If you feel like you need to cast your insecurities on others, then this means you're not living authentically. Set better boundaries. If you are living on other people's terms, you aren't living authentically. It's that simple. Your priorities NEED to come first. Get to know yourself better. You cannot living authentically if you don't know what is authentic for you.
