Do you have a chasm between expectation and reality? This is where we get frustrated with relationships, careers, friendships, and God. But what if, instead of getting frustrated or giving up, we learned to decrease the distance between the chasm and walk in our reality? When we do so, it will change everything.

On this episode of the New Rules Podcast, we're talking with Ira Schoffel, Managing Editor for Warchant. We discuss the change in culture with print to digital, our thoughts on Lebron James "shut up and dribble," home births, and more on this week's episode of the New Rules Podcast.

This week we're bringing you a collaboration with the New Rules Podcast and Church in the Wild Podcast! Seth Trimmer, host of Church in the Wild, wants to help people be the Church where it's not easy to be the church.

"I'm thankful that Jesus died for me and gave me life. But I'm also thankful that he gave me something to do on this earth. Christianity is more than just attending church and tithing." - @adriancrawford #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!

This week, we discuss how overrated it is for you to be your authentic self. This seems to be the new buzzword these days, and yet it seems to just mean this is your excuse to say and do whatever you want. But leaders SHOULD be authentic, so how do we balance between being authentic and being selfish? This, our thoughts on Lebron James, and more on this week's episode of the New Rules Podcast.

"Using 'authentic leader' as an excuse will lead to you hurting others." @billy_humphrey #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!

"The key is learning to be your authentic self even when you've got boundaries." - @ech_o #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!

"Your feelings don't define authenticity. Your feelings can point to a truth, passion, or desire that's inside of you that's been suppressed by fears." - @adriancrawford #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!

"Being who you weren't meant and created to be has nothing to do with how you feel." - @adriancrawford #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!

"If the authentic side of who you are is still driven by selfish desires, that is not an authentic creation of who you're supposed to be. Your authentic self is about other people. It's adding value to your family, work, community, politics." - @adriancrawford #newrulespodcast TWEET THIS!
