Podcasts about live authentically

I was always intrigued by the premise behind “Love Is Blind” - a reality show where singles try to find a match and fall in love -- without ever seeing each other face-to-face, as emotional connection attempts to conquer physical attraction. Full disclosure, I don't watch TV so I haven't seen an episode but still, the notion of moving beyond physical appearance and chemistry feels simultaneously intriguing and super risky.  Then @Drew Taylor Cohen caught my attention with a post detailing her experience when building her @Bumble profile strictly on words stating her chosen values. NO perfect selfies.NO predictable prompts that yield, “I love to hike, travel, cook, walk my dogs and go wine tasting.” NO eggplant emojis. Just the personal values she attempts to live by. (Oh, and one picture of her at a distance to prevent being flagged as a bot). @Drew Taylor Cohen is an Impact Consultant and Values Coach, so we talked about how to identify our own chosen values and distinguish them from our beliefs and identities (something I rooted myself in historically). We also discuss the challenges of seeking validation from others while navigating personal choices and the need for self-awareness and the evolving nature of values as individuals grow and change.What an awesome conversation especially as I consider something similar in my own dating journey. Anyone relate? Join the conversation…Guest Bio:Trained in holistic, neurodiverse and values-aligned coaching techniques, Drew helps singles and couples break old patterns and align their values to find lasting love.Dedicated to finding love that felt soul-aligned and safe, she set out on a personal development journey that led her to discover her values and trust her needs and desires. What did she do next? She created a dating profile with no photos, just screenshots of her values and how she envisioned them being shared in an aligned partnership. And it worked! Her fiancé and her just celebrated four years of swiping right on the things that matter most.Through 1:1 coaching, she now helps her clients rewrite their own values-aligned love story and clarify what truly matters in love. Her aligned love method is about prioritizing your non-negotiables and curating love that mirrors the truth of who you already are.She also developed and leads the Live Authentically program. This workshop and accompanying workbook uses a proven framework that guides participants to explore who you are, discover your chosen values and pursue an aligned life.When she's not helping people align their relationships and life to their values, she's supporting purpose-driven organizations as a freelance impact consultant. Drew leverages her expertise through operations, strategy and impact communications work.Website: https://www.chosendirections.com/Instagram: https://instagram.com/chosendirectionscoachingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drew-taylor-cohen/ About Jen Oliver:I pursue and create environments where we converse on the REAL stuff that changes us.

Living authentically means that we strip away the masks and delusions and illusions.  We focus on what truly matters and has real lasting value.

In a world obsessed with appearances, Pastor Will invites us to trade performance for authenticity. Drawing from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, this message challenges us to let go of image management and embrace a “greater righteousness”—a life that flows from a transformed heart. Real change begins with honest prayer and a commitment to live authentically before God.

Are you living a life you really believe in, or are you filling in time until your “real life” begins? Are you waiting on marriage, a better job, a new exercise regime or a beautiful house to create an authentic life?  Humans do need to have goals and plans, but it is also destructive to ignore those inner voices telling us what would bring us individual meaning.  In this classic episode, Andrew and PHILIP CARR-GOMM discuss how to start developing your authentic self right now, rather than endlessly kicking that important ball further down the road.  Philip Carr-Gomm is an expert in psychosynthesis, an  “awe-inspiring territory that has the power to transform us”. He believes that something magical happens when the worlds of modern psychology and ancient spiritual teachings are brought together. Philip has studied Druidry extensively and from 1988-2020 was the leader of The Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids. He has a degree in Psychology and has trained in psychotherapy, play therapy, Montessori education, yoga nidra, mindfulness meditation and Sophrology. Philip recently created an online school, The Art of Living Well, to offer courses combining psychological and spiritual understanding. If You're Looking for More….

Throughout our conversation, Kim opened up about her past struggles with unworthiness and self-doubt and how she has moved beyond those feelings to embrace her worthiness. She shared valuable insights on the importance of self-awareness, the necessity of doing the inner work, and the power of taking back control over our lives. We also touched on the importance of setting boundaries, especially with family, and how cutting toxic relationships can lead to personal freedom and healing. Kim's journey of self-empowerment serves as a reminder that we all can change our narratives and create a life filled with joy and purpose. As we wrapped up, Kim shared her non-negotiable daily habits, including journaling and prioritizing sleep, which have become essential for her well-being.

Y'all I am so honored that today I get to welcome one of my best friends Vivi onto That's So Rich to not only talk about how to navigate life in an authentic and playful way but also get so celebrate her year anniversary of a TedX Talk she did at Columbia Business School in 2023.Genevieve (Vivi) Gregorich is a PhD candidate in Management at Columbia Business School.

Today, we're talking about how to shed these layers, break free from people-pleasing, and truly live as your authentic self.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee delves into the symbolic parallels between Halloween's tradition of costume-wearing and the masks we wear in our daily lives. As we celebrate Halloween, Baylor challenges listeners to reflect on the "Halloween of life" and consider the masks they wear to navigate different social environments. This episode uncovers the truth about how wearing masks can drain energy and authenticity, urging us to embrace our true selves instead. Baylor Barbee explores the idea of authenticity through the metaphor of Halloween, highlighting how people often change their personas to fit in. He emphasizes the liberating power of showing up as your true self, suggesting this is the key to living a life of integrity and authenticity. The episode encourages listeners to drop their masks, clean up their internal and external portrayals, and, instead of pretending, embody power and confidence every day. Through SEO-friendly insights, Baylor offers invaluable life lessons on how authenticity positively affects our personal and professional lives. Key Takeaways: Understand the hidden costs of wearing masks in daily life and how it impacts your energy and sense of self. Embrace the concept of showing up authentically instead of relying on personas tailored to different social settings. Utilize personal subtraction rather than addition as a method for personal growth and authenticity. Adopt powerful and confident personas consistently to transform your self-perception and external actions. Treat yourself to the life you deserve by recognizing and leveraging your true qualities and potential. Notable Quotes: "The ultimate compliment that somebody could ever give you in life is when who you are is who you are regardless of where you are." "You never clean a house by adding to it. You always do it through subtraction." "Imagine having to be this confident version of yourself that looks people in the eye, that believes what they say, that takes action." "You're done tricking yourself...you're done living life below what you're capable of being." "Treat yourself to the life you deserve based on the person you are, the qualities you have, and the future that you have in front of you."

In this episode,  meet the hugely successful author Simon James Green.Simon writes books for a YA audience that include vital representation for LGBTQ+ teens.  This has led to his books being vilified and even banned. Simon talks about growing up gay in the UK in the shadow of  Clause 28, a time when  being true to oneself seemed nearly impossible. Simon recounts his personal journey of gradual self-revelation—a roadmap marked by subtle hints and professional expressions rather than a single defining moment. This powerful narrative underscores the importance of visible LGBTQ+ role models and challenges the often unspoken assumption of heteronormativity. We explore the myriad ways people navigate their identities, reminding us all that creating safe spaces for genuine self-expression is vital.We also discuss the ongoing challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community, delving into the resurgence of anti-LGBTQ+ sentiments and the book bans that Simon faces as an author. Oh, and our Emma is getting married!  HUGE congratulations to her and the wonderful Siobhan!Presented by Emma Goswell Produced by Sam Walker We'd love to hear YOUR story.
