46. How Can I Openly Be Who I Really Am? With Rebecca Woolf

Good Things from Lemonada · Aug 19, 2022 · 37m

Sitting with the reality of her husband's impending death, author Rebecca Woolf did something she later understood to be a liberating act: she was radically honest with the world about her complex grief, her desires for an authentic life, and even her past infidelity. Being radically honest propelled her beyond fear of judgment and lifted the weight of any shame. Rebecca tells Claire why she thinks people hide their truth and why people need to wrestle with difficult introspection, even during hard moments.
