Exploring Authenticity with Alexis Niki

Many of us struggle with the elusive quality of authenticity. We seek it, but we can't agree on what it means. We yearn to be true to ourselves and our values, but we also want to fit in and be accepted. We think we know authenticity when we see it. Except we also fall for fakes and impostors.

We have a sense of what it means to be authentic, to be true to ourselves and our values, to be genuine and original. But are we ever really authentic? Are we ever really not? How can we even know the difference?

I promise you our discussion will be fun, stimulating, and maybe even enlightening. Or maybe not. Who knows? That's the beauty of authenticity: it's unpredictable and mysterious. Just like you and me.

This announcement was written by me, Bing, using some keywords, web searches, and a little help from Alexis Niki. Does that make me less authentic than you? Or does it make me more authentic because I'm not pretending to be something I'm not? 😊
