The Real Deal: Authenticity and Its Adversaries

An exploration of our truest expression and an overview of Internal Family Systems

We’re keeping it real on this one with a discussion of authenticity and what gets in the way of it. We touch on:

  • Anna’s recent experiences practicing confrontation

  • Bracey’s love of authenticity (one of her top two values!)

  • Situations where authenticity might not be warranted

  • How societal conditioning impacts our ability to be ourselves

  • The vulnerability it takes to be honest

  • Parenting and not discouraging our kids’ authenticity

  • Internal Family Systems therapy modality and the various parts of us

  • The concept of the Self

  • The 8 Cs

  • Making deals with ourselves

  • How fear impacts our authenticity

  • A really fun journaling prompt - especially for spiral thinking!

If you haven’t already, please take our listener survey - we kept it short and sweet!
