Authenticity

I’m not writing about being thankful today.

I’m writing about being authentic.

About leaning in and letting ourselves be seen — truly seen — in all our wholeness.

• The light and the shadows.

• The pain and the joy.

• The fears and the dreams.

• The parts we’re aware of and the parts we’re still learning to love.

• Our child selves and adult selves.
  

Life is a 'BOTH/AND' journey...

This past month has been one of growth and heartbreak.

A journey of expansion and also breaking open.

Being human isn’t tidy or seasonal.

It’s messy, courageous, tender, and real.

And the more we allow ourselves to show up in our full, honest selves, the more we make space for others to do the same.

Here’s to being fully human — today and every day.
