This episode we're addressing the tension or challenge between meeting two human needs, Authenticity and Belonging. Kate overviews the concept of Authenticity and then illustrates the tension that can be felt between choosing to be authentic and belong using models of development and motivation from humanistic psychology including, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Erickson's Stages of Psychosocial Development.
Questions Kate poses to help you explore your values and driving motives, to help facilitate authenticity:
What matters to me?What do I want to stand for and want to orient my life around?What do I believe are the ingredients of a great and happy life?

Kate is breaking down the crucially important difference between supportive compassionate helping, and enabling bad behavior.
There is a blurry line between the two that is often complicated by personal and caring relationships. But it is a slippery slope, and while no one ever intends to enable behavior in another that is unhealthy, supportive helping can turn into enabling behavior.
In this episode Kate outlines:
The difference between Compassion & EnablingHow enabling can do harmThe relationships where we need to be aware of the potential to become an enablerHow we can recognize enabling behavior in ourselves3 ways we can move away from enabling, and back towards compassion

In this episode we are asking the question - How Do You Know if You're Heading in the Wrong Direction in Life? What are the signs you can rely on, and how can you check in with yourself to see if you re-route.
Host, Kate Snowise, talks about having to go-back on a recent decision about a direction she was hell-bent on taking. She talks about going through three phases:

Realizing that she was being called to check-in after seeing signs and obstacles on her pathOpening up to possibilityBefore exploring and tuning in with yourself to work out if she was on the right path
Kate offers some questions that she asked herself. These are:

What particular needs or values are driving this decision deep down? (What needs of mine are being met here?)How do I want to feel deep down? Is this taking me closer to that?What advice would my higher-self have for me right now?
Journalling on these questions helped Kate identify that she need to re-route and adjust course, moving away from a vision she had in her head and onto another path. As she notes, this was uncomfortable, but once she had explored and tuned-in, she could be at peace with her decision and see the longer term implications it would bring with it.
