Are you scared to be yourself? Asking for a friend...
Episode 31 is all about being our true selves: who we feel we are in our gut, who God created us to be. Are you bringing your true self to your work, to your life? I discuss my own experience with this question.

Quotes mentioned during this episode:
- “Many a man who has known himself at ten forgets himself utterly between ten and thirty.” — Catherine Drinker Bowen
- "You are not required to save the world, or anyone for that matter, with your art. It isn’t valuable only if it rescues or raises money or makes an enormous impact. It can be simply for the love of it. That is not frivolous or selfish in the slightest. If the only person it saves is you, that’s enough.” — Jen Hatmaker
- "Your reason and your passion are the rudder and the sails of your seafaring soul. If either your sails or your rudder be broken, you can but toss and drift, or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas. For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction. Therefore let your soul exalt your reason to the height of passion, that it may sing; And let it direct your passion with reason, that your passion may live through its own daily resurrection, and like the phoenix rise above its own ashes." — Khalil Gibran in his book, The Prophet
- “If you win the rat race, you're still a rat.” — Lily Tomlin
- “What a terrible waste of a life it is, to always take the easy path, to never know what it is to risk everything for what you love.” — Beau Taplin
