Smith & Smith- “The notion of authenticity is concerned with something being exactly what it says it is; it is real, true and genuine” (p. 49).Becoming more aware of my actions and what I say and how they may reflect to others.

Stewart- “A fierce conversation is one in which

we come out from behind ourselves and into the conversation and make it real” (p. 57).

I am taking the time to genuinely listen to everything in every conversation I have Helping me learn more about people around me and a part of my life and taking away different lessons and ideas from each person

How am I working to become more authentic?
