Show Notes

The conversation is moving from what we need/want to recover from (INTRApersonal culprits such as self-condemnation, persistent anxiety, perfectionism, addictions, eating disorders, etc) toward how we go about the next phase of this process which involves the recovery of our authentic selves.

Allen & Thom discuss personal experiences and share experiences with clients (confidentiality intact) that are instructive in teaching some of the practical basics of maintaining connection to the authentic self in our daily lives. The hosts explore the multiple aspects of the authentic self, emphasizing the importance of discovering and developing parts of ourselves that may be underdeveloped because of family of origin learning.

Listeners are encouraged to do some exploring of their own, even suggesting that we might identify or even name the multiple aspects of our authentic selves.
