Find liberation in authenticity from "summary" of Untamed by Glennon Doyle
The only thing more important than feeling free is feeling free to be yourself. We spend so much of our lives trying to fit into boxes that were never meant for us. We bend and contort ourselves, trying to squeeze into spaces that were never designed to hold our wild, untamed spirits. We wear masks and play roles, all in the name of pleasing others and gaining acceptance. But what if we stopped pretending? What if we let go of the need to conform, to be liked, to be approved of? What if we embraced our true selves, with all of our flaws and imperfections? What if we showed up as we are, unapologetically and authentically? Liberation is found in authenticity. It is in the act of shedding our masks and stepping into the light as our true selves that we find true freedom. It is in honoring our own desires, needs, and dreams that we discover the power of our own voice. It is in being unapologetically ourselves that we give others permission to do the same. When we stop trying to please others and start listening to our own inner voice, we find a sense of peace and wholeness that can only come from living in alignment with our true selves. We stop seeking validation from external sources and start finding it within ourselves. Authenticity is not always easy. It requires us to be vulnerable, to be seen, to be truly ourselves in a world that often rewards conformity. But the rewards of living authentically are vast. We find deeper connections with others, as they are drawn to our genuine spirit. We find a sense of purpose and meaning that comes from living in alignment with our true selves. So let go of the need to please others. Let go of the need to fit into boxes that were never meant for you. Embrace your wild, untamed spirit and find liberation in authenticity. It is in being true to yourself that you will find true freedom.
