I’ve been thinking and talking a lot about authenticity lately. A lot of people struggle with answering one of life’s most basic questions: “Who are you?” I’ve often had trouble answering that question, myself. But it’s something we all need to be able to answer. And we need to be happy and comfortable with that answer. If we’re not we need to make some changes. That’s why asking and answering it is a good practice.
