Welcome to Breaking Free from the Performance:

How pretending to be “good” blocks your gifts, authenticity, and creativity.

Wow, you’re here. You made it to this page where I’m re-leasing some good stuff. I’ll be updating weekly until the whole collection is complete. Enjoy.

First published September 29, 2020, this intro episode is less than 15 minutes, and we talk about participation, permission, and the art of self-discovery.

First published October 6, 2020, this first episode has some ideas on widening our perspective when it comes to the information rejection brings us, and suggestions on how one might react more productively when rejected.

This second episode is about surrender, Jazz, control, trust, and the art of improvising. Give new meaning to mistakes.

This episode is but a scratch in the vastness of this subject, but a little enjoyable scratch for the big itch of authenticity nonetheless.

What I loved about revisiting this episode is the reminder that authenticity comes with a price. You cannot be this without being vulnerable. And getting hurt is a guarantee. But the resilience and integrity we find on the other side is priceless.
