Episode 376: Halloween’s Over But Are You Still Wearing a Mask?

As I've become more fascinated with how the brain works and what makes people do the things they do that continue to keep them stuck and unhappy, I've come across a shocking statistic:

98% of the Earth's population is not self-actualized, which means that only 2% of people are living authentic to who they truly are! This is according to Abraham Maslow, who is one of the founders of humanistic psychology and the famous hierarchy of needs.

And the worst part is they don't even know it!!!

A good analogy I've found to explain what it's like when someone is not living from their most authentic version is that they are wearing a mask.

Makes sense, right?

On Halloween we don costumes to be a certain character for fun yet we don't even realize that we could be doing that all of the other 364 days in the year too! Isn't this a perfect topic for this Halloween week?!

So listen in and hear what behaviors and ways of being might be indicators that you could still be wearing a mask, even though Halloween is over.

I also give specific examples of my past I now know were choices I made that were completely inauthentic to who I am at my core, and then I share 6 steps you can take to help you discover your true self. 

My mission in the time I have left is to help drive this awareness to the 98% and help them understand it is ok to off their masks because life is a whole heckuva lot better when you can truly be who you are meant to be!
