Choose To Be with Choose Recovery Services; Betrayal Trauma Healing

We all wear masks at times, but hiding your true self is exhausting and inauthentic. In this week’s episode we welcome back Luke Gordon. Luke opens up about his personal battles with hiding behind false versions of himself. He describes how he was finally able to deepen relationships when he stepped into vulnerability, integrity, and authenticity.

Listen to learn:

• What true authenticity is and isn’t
