Pushing Through the Discomfort of True Authenticity
Me to You: Tell stories. With realness. (hashtag authenticity high fives all the things)
Me to Me: Ohhhh. You copping out, Havener? Practice what you preach.

Authenticity doesn't mean "share everything"
You set your own boundaries
You pick the topics
But once you pick em, own em
Authenticity doesn't mean a particular topic
It's a vibe around any topic

I had to practice what I preach
I am glad I did
Connection happens in shared human experience.
