In this episode of Adult Child of Dysfunction: Thriving After Chaos, we’re diving deep into one of the most important aspects of healing and self-discovery—authenticity. Many of us grew up in environments where we had to suppress our true selves to survive. But as adults, we have the power to reclaim our authenticity and live in alignment with who we truly are.
So, how do you know if you're living authentically? I’m sharing 10 powerful questions that will help you reflect on your choices, relationships, and overall well-being. Grab a journal, take a deep breath, and let's explore:
1️⃣ Am I making decisions based on my true desires, or am I trying to meet others' expectations?
2️⃣ Do I feel a sense of peace and fulfillment with the way I live my life?
3️⃣ When was the last time I felt truly alive? What was I doing?
4️⃣ Do I say “yes” to things I don’t want to do just to avoid disappointing others?
5️⃣ Am I surrounded by people who accept and support the real me?
6️⃣ Do I set and uphold boundaries that protect my energy and well-being?
7️⃣ If I had no fear of judgment or failure, what would I do differently?
8️⃣ Do I feel more energized or drained by my daily life and commitments?
9️⃣ Do I trust and follow my intuition, even when it goes against logic or outside opinions?
🔟 If I keep living the way I am now, will I feel proud and fulfilled 10 years from today?
If you find yourself answering "no" to many of these, it’s okay! Awareness is the first step. In this episode, I’ll also share practical ways to shift toward a more aligned, fulfilling, and authentic life—one where you no longer feel the need to shrink, please, or conform.
Let’s break free from the past and step fully into who we were always meant to be. 💙
