What is authenticity & why is authentic decision making so important?

I am geeking out with you this week to define once & for-all the all too common buzzword: authenticity.

What does authenticity look like? Does it matter if I choose authenticity? If learning how to make authentic decisions is so important, what benefits can I expect from choosing an authentic life over following the easier, status quo path?

This video is broken up into two main sections. I’ll first define authenticity based on simple google searches, thesaurus browsing & a deep dive into positive psychology literature. Then, I’ll check my assumptions to see if authenticity is beneficial to your wellbeing.

Follow along as I prepare to use positive psychology coaching in practice so you, too, can learn how to use positive psychology to improve your life.
