Podcasts about inauthentic

If you find yourself torn between rationality and spirituality, science and mysticism, facts and belief; The Lectern's inaugural 8-week course will offer you a new lens through which to reflect on these dilemmas. Click here to enroll: https://lectern.teachable.com/p/einstein-and-spinoza-s-god1 “What does it really mean to be authentic, and can this virtue be meaningfully understood and measured across psychology and philosophy?” John Vervaeke, Gregg Henriques and Matthew Schaublin embark on a discussion covering the concept of authenticity. The discussion explores authenticity as one of the premier virtues of modernity, comparing it with autonomy, and tracing its roots through romanticism and existentialism, notably discussing Heidgegger and Kierkegaard. Greg introduces psychological perspectives and client-centered therapy influenced by Carl Rogers, while Matthew shares insights from his empirical research on dispositional authenticity carried out at the University of Chattanooga. The trio also touch on the tensions between self-identification and participation, self-alienation, cognitive fluency, and the societal quest for authenticity, proposing a nuanced and dynamic understanding of the true self. Gregg R. Henriques is an American psychologist. He is a professor for the Combined-Integrated Doctoral Program at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia, US. Matthew Schaublin is a master's candidate in psychology at the University of Chattanooga, with a four-year research focus on authenticity. His work blends empirical psychology with philosophical and classical inquiry, investigating how dispositional authenticity is expressed and experienced. —- Notes:  0:00 Introduction to the Lectern 0:45 Exploring the Concept of Authenticity 3:30 Greg's Perspective on Authenticity 5:00 Matthew's Research on Dispositional Authenticity 9:00 Theoretical Foundations of Authenticity 12:30 Philosophical and Clinical Perspectives 24:30 Relational and Psychological Dimensions 36:30 The Evolution of Self-Definition in Modernity 38:00 The Greek Roots of Authenticity 39:30 Modeling Authenticity and Personality 43:15 Rationalization and Authenticity 44:45 Tensions in Authenticity: Identification vs. Participation 49:00 The SAFE Model of Authenticity 55:00 Empirical Studies on Authenticity and Agency 1:06:30 Key Takeaways and Future Directions —-- Connect with a community dedicated to self-discovery and purpose, and gain deeper insights by joining our Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/johnvervaeke   The Vervaeke Foundation is committed to advancing the scientific pursuit of wisdom and creating a significant impact on the world.

And I'm delighted to be joined by Laurie Smith, who I'm thinking this is gonna be an interesting conversation because Laurie is a soulful speaking coach. Now if that doesn't sound like the most interesting conversation you're gonna have today, I don't know what is. Laurie is, somebody who helps visionaries, empaths, people who are on a soul driven vision to share their magic, share their story on stages, big, small, podcasts, etcetera. So I'm really looking forward to hearing Laurie's stories and Laurie's, advice. And welcome to It's Not Rocket Science 5 Questions Over Coffee, Laurie.Lauri Smith [00:01:12]:Thank you so much, Stuart. I'm so excited to be here with you today having this conversation.Stuart Webb [00:01:18]:Well, let's get into it. Let's start by speaking about those those visionaries, those empaths, those those people who are on that soul centered, journey, and how you how you how they how they are trying to reach what they're trying to do.Lauri Smith [00:01:34]:Well, the thing that can sort of steer them off course is they're wanting to speak in a way that is authentic, wanting to speak in a way that has an impact and transforms the vibe in the room, whether that's a TikTok or a TED Talk. And a lot of the mainstream speaking solutions out there are putting them in a box that was created in different waves of the industrial era. That's one way of speaking, one way of gesturing so that it's creating sort of a mask that doesn't feel like it fits them. And sometimes as a result of that, they go into those rooms and they feel the dissonance and they feel like there's nothing that can help them, or they go into those rooms and they they hide their true selves and they try to fit into the mask or the mold that they're being given as what a leader or a change maker quote, unquote, should be. ThatStuart Webb [00:02:37]:Should be.Lauri Smith [00:02:37]:It's supporting this era that we're now in where people really need to be authentic and to be in alignment with themselves and their 1 in 8,000,000,000 way of showing up.Stuart Webb [00:02:52]:And and and how have they tried to address this before they come across somebody like you, Laurie? What are the what are the things they they tempted with, you know, presumably is everything from speaking in an inauthentic way through to not speaking at all.Lauri Smith [00:03:06]:Yeah. Speaking in in that inauthentic way that they think they should. So, they might try to be hyper intelligent in a left brained way when that's not fully their that's not really their true inner radiance, or they might someone might have told them that they needed to be peppier, or that they needed to work harder or be funny and make the audience laugh and they might have gone to places like toastmasters and not not felt an alignment with that. They might have decided, I'm not a speaker. I'm not a leader, so they're not doing it like you said. Some people have gone to solutions like yoga and mindfulness, and on their own, they're trying to take the wisdom from yoga and mindfulness and having it translate onto the stage. A lot of them will spend a lot of time creating the PowerPoint, trying to come up with the script, the what am I going to say so that they've got the whole entire thing mapped out moment by moment, and they're essentially reading because they think that saying that there is an absolute perfect thing to say and that saying it is gonna get them the impact that they're looking for when it really isn't. It's much more effective to have an outline and to get up from your chair unless you're actually preventing presenting from your chair like I am right now.Lauri Smith [00:04:46]:To get up on your feet, so to speak, and to practice out loud just like a basketball player will practice their free throws again and again and again so that when they go into the game they can make the shot in the high stakes circumstances of the game rather than just thinking about the free throw.Stuart Webb [00:05:08]:Yeah. I often talk to leaders that I work with about important presentations, and many of them, like you have said, are the sort of person that will have a a PowerPoint deck of 50 slides and just put them up and read them. And so often I turn around and say, well, how many times have you actually practiced that? And I'll get practice. I didn't get it until 2 minutes before you start. Yeah. And and I've often said to them, you know, the thing is you should have it 2, 3 days before and get to know it, and then stand in the room where you're actually going to give the speech so that you're used to the place where you're gonna do it. So you're used to the site because it will change, and practice to not get it right, but fail to get it wrong. You know, I'm a I I I I sing when, in the, on on evenings, and we we compete.Stuart Webb [00:06:02]:And and the idea is that we don't sing and get it keep getting going until we get it right. We keep going until we can't get it wrong. You don't forget words because they're ingrained. And that's what speaking has to be as well sometimes. It has to be something which is just coming out of your soul. Isn't it?Lauri Smith [00:06:19]:Yeah. And with speaking, I think of it a lot like Saturday night live, where for Saturday night live, they create a thing, and then they've got a list of scenes and moments that they wanna hit in the scenes backstage and then when they go to do it live, it's semi scripted so they can do it fresh in the moment and speakers, they know their stuff more than they believe they do and they need to practice that structured improv enough to look down, see a bullet point, and know what do I wanna say with this bullet point? And what do I wanna say in the next bullet point? And it can be their same messaging, the thing that they know really deeply and are passionate about and slightly different every single time.Stuart Webb [00:07:13]:Yes. Yeah. So that you hit that audience connection, don't you?Lauri Smith [00:07:16]:Yeah. Absolutely.Stuart Webb [00:07:18]:I think you've got a very valuable, piece of, free advice that you're you're offering, which I'm showing on screen now, which is, voice hyphenmatches.comforward/sorryforward/podcast. Tell us what what we'll find there, Lori, and and how it can help.Lauri Smith [00:07:37]:That is the Soulful Speaking podcast. When you go to that site, you'll get to listen to the podcast for free. A quiz will pop up that you can take that will tell you which mask you're using and hiding behind, probably unconsciously, and then there's a whole bunch of resources and tips that are gonna come back after that. That's the the free free offer to start moving forward. And, I think you also wanted a tidbit of advice that they could put into action right away.Stuart Webb [00:08:11]:That would be great.Lauri Smith [00:08:13]:Yeah. The the advice that I would give to people is to set an intention for what you want the audience to experience emotionally or energetically. And it's not something like I want them to like me. That's an inner critic driven thing and with the intention we're trying to take the reins away from the inner critic and give it back to that highest most confident part of yourself. So it might be something like I want to give the audience hope. If you're going into a networking meeting instead of thinking I hope they hire me or I hope I don't screw up. I hope I don't say the wrong thing. Those are all soul suckers trying to protect us.Lauri Smith [00:08:57]:I'd like to give the audience a glimmer of hope either for themselves or for a friend they've got that is struggling. It might be something like I wanna see people expanding or opening as if they're opening their heart which is a little bit more of an energetic or a physical thing and when we do that instead of looking for what might go wrong and then that becoming a self fulfilling prophecy we're connecting with that soul driven mission that we're here to do and then aligning with, a mile marker of that and we'll start to notice shifts toward people feeling more hope rather than shifts toward, oh, I think I might said I think I just said the wrong thing.Stuart Webb [00:09:50]:That's a really wonderful tip. That's a really wonderful tip. And it it's you're right. We all need to sometimes learn to silence that inner critic, don't we, and take away the oxygen.Lauri Smith [00:10:00]:Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:10:01]:What is it? What is it, Laurie, that got you, to become the soulful speaker? Was there a particular moment in in your career or your your journey? Was there a a book, a course, something which sort of took you from where you are to where from where you were to where you are now?Lauri Smith [00:10:17]:The the key there have been a lot of different bread crumbs along the way that I followed, and the key that I talk about a lot was in an acting class that I took. Many people think that acting is about lying. It's actually quite the opposite. It's about authenticity and mirroring things back to humanity. And in my favorite acting class ever, there was an exercise one day where I was up there by myself instead of being up there with a colleague or 3. And I kept pulling myself together between these little bits of the exercise, very similar to these masks that industrial speaking is consciously or unconsciously asking us to wear. And Richard, my teacher, stopped the exercise and said, whatever that is that you're doing in between, stop doing that. And I said, I'm not that comfortable having everyone's eyes on me.Lauri Smith [00:11:21]:And he took off his glasses and he said, well, then you've picked a strange set of careers for yourself. You're an actor, a teacher, a speaker, a leader. Part of you wants this. In fact, part of you knows you're meant to be here. And that really struck me. And even my protectors and inner critics deeply trusted him, so it was like my heart and soul knew he was right. And because I trusted him and the space that he held, I jumped back into the exercise and was actively releasing those masks, and it felt like decades of protection were melting away in a kind of combination of fire and ice and when the exercise was over I looked out at my classmates and I felt completely in sync with them. I felt like I could see and feel what kind of a day they were each having.Lauri Smith [00:12:18]:And I now say it was my first moment of being in flow or in oneness that lasted beyond the sport or beyond the acting. I had had them while acting before. I had had them while playing basketball in high school where time just doesn't seem to exist. And when it's over, people ask you about a certain play or a moment, and and you're you kind of don't know what they're talking about because you were so in it. And what I realized from that is that our charisma, our one of a kind presence comes from allowing ourselves to be seen while also holding the room in kind of an energetic hug. And that's at the root of how I work with speakers today. It's the same way that that acting instructor worked with me. Instead of thinking that you need to reach for something other than what you are, It's about letting go of everything that the world has told you that you should be and then learning how to expand your energy from there.Stuart Webb [00:13:32]:That's a wonderful story, and I think we all we all need a Richard. Don't we? We all need we all need that somebody who looks at you and tells you how it is and helps you to uncover the truth behind what you're hiding. And I know I have had Richards in my life who have been exactly the same, not with acting, but with with with other things. Yeah. Laurie Laurie, there must be one question that I have not yet asked, which you are really itching, witching an issue that I could could ask you. So what is what is the one question that you think I should be asking? And, obviously, when you ask it, you need to give us the answer.Lauri Smith [00:14:15]:Yeah. That's always the rub, isn't it? I I lead networking groups, and I will come up with great questions and forget that I have to answer them. The the question that popped into my mind when you asked that was theStuart Webb [00:14:28]:why. Mhmm.Lauri Smith [00:14:30]:Why am IStuart Webb [00:14:30]:Love the question.Lauri Smith [00:14:32]:Yeah. I and the short answer is it's my calling. And the longer part of that that I that I've kind of lived into or I am living into is I believe that speaking soulfully is actually part of raising consciousness on the planet. That is the biggest why. So the more soulfully our leaders and change makers can speak, the more it's gonna have a ripple effect. I see there's that image that we also in, like, a science class of evolution of humans, where they're hunched over, little bit taller. And to me, the way most of the western world is speaking is a generation or 2 back. It's actually not aligned with our our highest selves, our most courageous selves, and helping us to oddly, not oddly, recapture the kind of expressiveness we had as babies while marrying that to our sense of purpose or our intention or our mission as an adult.Lauri Smith [00:15:48]:Primal and presence coming together, primal and purpose coming together and creating a more resonant presence is it's it's a it's a huge thing, and it can also be paired down to tiny, small moment by moment things.Stuart Webb [00:16:06]:Brilliant. I love I love the message. I love the way that you put it. And I think you're right. We all need to, we all need to grasp those moments. We all need to find those moments. Even if we're not in front of a stage, we need to grasp them for ourselves anyway. Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:16:21]:Laurie, it's been wonderful having you speaking to us. I'm just gonna take a moment now and beg, people to just go to this link, which is link dot the complete approach dotco.ukforward/newsletter.

In this week's episode of Oh Crap Potty Training, I'm talking about something that trips up a lot of parents: staying authentic during potty training. It's easy to slip into “teacher mode” with a serious voice and extra pressure, but that can put your child on high alert and actually slow down progress. I share how to approach potty training as your real, everyday self—mistakes, messes, and all—so your child feels safe and supported during this big milestone. Remember, potty training isn't a test of your parenting skills; it's a learning process for your child. Let's keep it real and make it work!

In today's episode: Corporate communications teams try to sanitize the information coming to employees are fighting a losing battle. With modern information, employees know how companies are really doing. Inauthentic corporate communication can make it feel like the company doesn't care about employees. Two-thirds of employees say their companies aren't good at communicating with them. Leaders don't just have a responsibility to pump good information into the machine--they have a duty to tell the truth, be authentic, and make informed decisions. Truthful communication is hard, but necessary.

Empower Someone With BPD To End Unhealthy Life Choices Claims An Inauthentic YoutuberI keep it real to help you heal!An inauthentic subscriber purchasing Youtuber misinforms in the worst way possible by blamingpeople with Codependency as if you need to be "perfect" before you try to have all those "conversations" with someone in your life with BPD or else the borderline will just blame you.People with BPD don't take personal responsibility and it's not your job to be a "role model"or make sure as this Youtuber claims, "that your side of the fence is cleaned up first" to what, talk to a person with BPD abusing and using you? This Youtuber has bought over 70,000 "fake" subscribers in April and May 2024 (perhaps still on-going?) and allegedly also purchased thousands  of views on her video of a similar titlebecause her messages don't make sense and she isn't the "expert" she wants everyone to think she is.An in authentic Youtuber blaming victims of abusive borderlines and suggesting that you should be ableto "empower them" to stop "unhealthy life choices" that result from BPD. She sounds like a lost puppy,a rampant Codependent but what else is wrong with her that she needs to try to buy her way to "more credibility" while putting out the garbage "information" that she does. You can't empower a person with BPD to end the unhealthy life choices they make. Those choices will continue and continue to hurt you as will any notion or belief on your part that you aren't "perfect" enough for a person with BPD who uses you can can't love you.https://ajmahari.ca/sessions

The problem with comedian Bill Maher is he swallowed the green pill and rejected the red one. The green pill (capitalism) is only effective when combined with the red pill. Greed fuels Maher's outreach to political conservatives, not moral clarity or cultural enlightenment. He's Gordon Gekko from the movie "Wall Street." Absent religious conviction, Maher has succumbed to the religion of money and its ability to solve all problems. “I find Bill Maher entertaining and tolerable. I don't find him trustworthy or particularly authentic.” Join “Fearless” as Jason sparks a fire on Maher following his appearance on Fox News with Greg Gutfeld.

Is there a relationship between the ability to give and receive validation and one's capacity for resilience and coping with life's challenges? Zo's talking points: Title: The Complex Dynamics of Reciprocal Validation in Relationships In a world where seeking validation from others has become almost second nature, the implications of this behavior on mental health cannot be overlooked. The desire for validation stems from a deep-seated need for acceptance, approval, and affirmation from external sources. Individuals often seek validation as a means of bolstering their self-esteem and reinforcing their sense of self-worth. However, this reliance on external validation can have detrimental effects, leading to feelings of insecurity, self-doubt, and dependency on others' opinions. This craving for validation can be likened to a powerful drug, akin to opioids, that provides a temporary sense of euphoria and relief but ultimately leaves individuals craving more. In intimate relationships, where the need for validation is often heightened, the dynamics of validation can become even more complex. Authentic reciprocity and validation within a relationship require a delicate balance of give and take, where both partners feel seen, heard, and understood. In the context of intimate relationships, distinguishing between authentic validation and inauthentic validation can be challenging. Communication cues play a crucial role in discerning between genuine appreciation and superficial flattery. Inauthentic validation often stems from a place of manipulation, where one partner may seek to control or influence the other through insincere praise or validation. This can create an unhealthy dynamic of power imbalance and emotional manipulation within the relationship. Moreover, past wounds and traumas can often serve as a breeding ground for false validation. Individuals may find themselves trapped in a cycle of seeking validation to fill a void left by past experiences of rejection or neglect. Enablers, knowingly or unknowingly, may perpetuate this cycle by reinforcing inauthentic validation, further entrenching individuals in connections based on false pretenses. The concept of reciprocity in validation extends beyond intimate relationships and encompasses various types of connections, including romantic, familial, and professional relationships. The dynamics of validation are influenced by societal norms, cultural expectations, and individual self-worth. The ability to give and receive validation is deeply intertwined with one's sense of self-esteem and emotional intelligence. In exploring the complexities of reciprocal validation, it is essential to consider the role of vulnerability, trust, and emotional intimacy in fostering authentic connections. Boundaries and self-respect play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy balance between giving and receiving validation. Mindfulness and self-awareness are key in navigating the intricate web of validation dynamics, allowing individuals to cultivate genuine connections based on mutual respect and understanding. As we delve deeper into the true meaning of reciprocal validation, it is evident that the quest for validation is both a universal longing and a deeply personal journey. By examining the nuances of validation entitlement, emotional labor, and power dynamics within relationships, we can begin to unravel the complexities of human connection and the enduring quest for authenticity and self-acceptance. Title: The Complex Dynamics of Reciprocal Validation in Interpersonal Relationships Validation, the act of recognizing and affirming another person's thoughts, feelings, or experiences, is a fundamental aspect of human interaction. However, the quest for validation can sometimes veer into treacherous territory, leading to a myriad of psychological and emotional challenges. Seeking validation from external sources can have detrimental effects on mental health, fostering low self-esteem, self-doubt, and a dangerous reliance on others' opinions. This vulnerability to external validation can also make individuals susceptible to manipulation, as they may compromise their values and beliefs in search of approval. In the digital age, where social media platforms reign supreme, the landscape of validation has undergone a significant transformation. The instantaneous nature of social media can amplify the desire for validation, as individuals seek likes, comments, and shares as markers of approval and acceptance. The virtual realm has blurred the lines between authentic validation and performance, leading to a culture of comparison and validation-seeking behavior. This shift in validation dynamics begs the question: how can individuals cultivate a healthy balance between giving and receiving validation in their relationships? Mindfulness and present-moment awareness offer a powerful framework for navigating the complexities of reciprocal validation. By cultivating a sense of self-awareness and attunement to one's inner experiences, individuals can develop a deeper understanding of their validation-seeking behaviors. Mindfulness practices can help individuals discern between genuine validation and superficial praise, fostering a more authentic and connected form of validation in their relationships. Attachment styles, rooted in early childhood experiences with caregivers, can also shape one's approach to seeking validation in relationships. Individuals with secure attachment styles may feel more comfortable giving and receiving validation, while those with anxious or avoidant attachment styles may struggle with validation-seeking behaviors. Understanding one's attachment style can provide valuable insights into how validation dynamics play out in interpersonal relationships. The concept of validation intersects with the principles of unconditional love and acceptance in relationships. Genuine validation involves affirming an individual's inherent worth and dignity, irrespective of their actions or behaviors. This form of validation fosters a sense of belonging and security, nurturing a deep bond of trust and mutual respect between individuals. Furthermore, validation can be a powerful form of self-care, contributing to overall well-being and mental health. By validating one's own thoughts, feelings, and experiences, individuals can cultivate a sense of self-compassion and self-acceptance. This practice of self-validation can serve as a protective shield against external validation-seeking behaviors, empowering individuals to navigate relationships from a place of inner strength and authenticity. Ethical considerations also come into play when providing validation to others, especially in cases where honesty and authenticity may conflict with the desire to be supportive. Balancing the need for validation with the principles of integrity and ethical conduct requires a nuanced approach, where individuals strive to offer genuine validation while also upholding their values and boundaries. In conclusion, the concept of reciprocal validation is a multifaceted and intricate phenomenon that shapes the dynamics of interpersonal relationships. By exploring the intersections of validation with mindfulness, attachment styles, self-care, and ethical considerations, individuals can cultivate a deeper understanding of the complexities of validation dynamics. Ultimately, fostering a culture of authentic and reciprocal validation can nurture healthy and fulfilling relationships, grounded in trust, empathy, and mutual respect. Title: The Transformative Power of Reciprocal Validation in Interpersonal Relationships In the intricate web of human connections, the exchange of validation plays a pivotal role in shaping the dynamics of relationships. The quest for validation from others, while a natural and universal longing, can sometimes lead individuals down a path fraught with psychological and emotional challenges. Seeking external validation can be a double-edged sword, with the potential to cultivate feelings of low self-esteem, self-doubt, and a dangerous dependency on others' opinions. This vulnerability to external validation can render individuals susceptible to manipulation, as they may compromise their values and authenticity in pursuit of approval. The ability to give and receive validation is intricately linked to one's capacity for resilience and coping with life's challenges. Reciprocal validation serves as a powerful tool for fostering emotional resilience and fortitude, providing individuals with a sense of validation and support in times of adversity. By cultivating a culture of mutual validation in relationships, individuals can bolster their emotional well-being and navigate life's obstacles with greater strength and resilience. The concept of reciprocal validation intersects with the principles of authenticity and self-expression in relationships. Authentic validation involves affirming and honoring an individual's genuine thoughts, feelings, and experiences, creating a space for open and honest communication. By embracing authenticity and self-expression in the validation process, individuals can cultivate deeper connections built on trust, vulnerability, and mutual understanding. Validation, when approached as a form of emotional validation, can have profound effects on overall well-being and mental health. By offering genuine validation, individuals can validate and acknowledge their emotions, experiences, and struggles, promoting a sense of self-compassion and self-acceptance. This practice of emotional validation can serve as a healing balm for the soul, fostering a greater sense of inner peace and well-being. Cultural perspectives play a significant role in shaping the way validation is understood and practiced in relationships. Different cultures may have varying norms and expectations regarding validation, influencing the ways in which individuals seek and receive validation from others. By exploring and honoring cultural differences in the validation process, individuals can foster deeper connections and mutual respect in their relationships. Common misconceptions about validation can hinder the development of healthy and fulfilling relationships. One prevalent misconception is the belief that validation equates to agreement or approval. In reality, validation involves acknowledging and affirming an individual's feelings and experiences, irrespective of agreement. By dispelling these misconceptions and embracing the true essence of validation, individuals can cultivate more authentic and meaningful connections with others. The integration of validation into therapeutic approaches can enhance communication and emotional intimacy in relationships. Therapists and mental health professionals can incorporate validation techniques into their practice to create a safe and validating space for clients to explore their emotions and experiences. By validating clients' feelings and perspectives, therapists can foster a sense of trust and empathy, facilitating deeper emotional connections and growth. In essence, the ability to give and receive validation is a cornerstone of healthy and fulfilling relationships. By embracing the transformative power of reciprocal validation, individuals can cultivate resilience, authenticity, and emotional well-being in their interactions with others. Through the practice of genuine validation, individuals can forge deeper connections, foster mutual understanding, and navigate life's challenges with grace and strength.

Content Ins and Outs, business edition… heads up: this episode is more than trending reel audios, so if you're a service provider, influencer, coach of any kind (fitness, mindset, business), or founder facing brand you're gonna wanna hear this! When it comes to the online business game, Jessie sees it all. She notices consumer behaviour, and shifts in audience preferences. Tune in as Jessie doesn't hold back on her content predictions, and spoiler alert, the “It girl” content is dead. Inauthentic content is not the vibe, and prioritising engagement over client experience is out.

If you struggle to communicate assertively, you're not alone.  I've coached over 100 women and assertiveness is one of the most common struggles I've seen as a coach. The good news is, there IS a way to become more assertive and there's a way to do it that can feel GOOD and AUTHENTIC to you.  So many women worry that in order to be assertive, they have to act rude, aggressive, or inauthentic.  This actually isn't true and this belief is based on a misunderstanding of what assertiveness actually is. In today's episode, I'm helping you shift your mindset around assertiveness and I'm showing you that true assertiveness will always feel authentic when your mindset is in the right place. Tune in to hear how one simple mindset shift can change the entire game for you when it comes to assertiveness.  I can't wait to dive in!! P.S.

The first time I learned I couldn't be my authentic self in the world was in second grade when I wore a Barney shirt to school. Yep, you guessed it, so not cool. It's instances like that where we learn to not be ourselves, to be small and to shrink ourselves into what works for others.  In this conversation, I'm going to share what happens when our authentic self is disconnected from our public persona and how to bridge the gap.  If you feel like you've been getting smaller and smaller to fit the needs of others - then this conversation is for you.

What You'll Hear In This Episode:- The symbiotic relationship between masculinity and femininity, and how they bring out the best in each other- The misconception that simply dressing up and waiting for the "right guy" is enough to feel feminine- Learning how to make a man's world bigger by supporting his dreams and aspirations- The tendency to build walls and become less open with age and negative experiences- The shifting of focus from masculine or feminine behavior to attractive behavior- The dangers of relying on seducers and players to bring out femininity- The need for self-reflection and understanding one's role in attracting certain types of individuals- The importance of both partners doing their part in maintaining a healthy relationship Key quotes:"Because I had these thick walls up and I was so afraid of being vulnerable and feminine I never could find a man who treated me the way I wanted to be treated. Most men didn't feel like there was an opportunity for them to do that with me." — Lisa Shield"One way of making a man's world bigger is listening to, asking about, and supporting his dreams." — Lisa Shield"If you want to have a healthy relationship and you want to have a really beautiful, masculine, feminine dynamic, then it starts with learning about masculinity. Not just learning how you can become more feminine, but learning what draws out a man's masculine side. So you need to do your part just as much as he needs to do his part." — Lisa Shield"And it's not just about sitting and waiting for a man to bring your femininity out, but it's also about you knowing how to draw out his masculinity. And as you do that, your femininity will start to emerge in the process." — Lisa ShieldContinue On Your Journey: Lisa Shield | YouTube | Facebook | Instagram | Book a Call With LisaEmail the podcast at: podcast@lisashield.com

Wei Tan is a musician, artist, and filmmaker. More importantly, she's one of my best friends. We recorded this just after the Scorpio Lunar Eclipse in early May 2023 to chat about our experiences and revelations. Eclipses are basically chaotic full moons and this one had a strong Scorpio flavor. Life is intense. Having friends to chat through it all unfiltered is priceless. We kept it real. We chat about: - What it means to be authentic - Navigating triggering dynamics in friendships - Manifesting big things that we've wanted but not feeling the way we expected to feel - Ego + masculine vs. feminine dynamics at work - The process of making a film!
