The Privilege of Becoming: Exploring Authenticity through Liminal Writing

In this episode of Liminal Writing, Ces and Lee find inspiration from a line by Carl Jung, 'The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you really are.'

They explore themes of self-discovery, authenticity, and personal growth, recounting their unique journeys of understanding their true selves. For Ces, it was about moving in the direction that seemed to be unacceptable to others, but felt right for her. And for Lee, it was the long journey to his truth and happiness as a trans man.

The conversation touches on the challenges and triumphs of their paths, the impact of societal expectations, and the liberating experience of embracing one's identity. The episode concludes with an invitation for listeners to engage in their own writing exercise using the same trigger phrase.
