“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” ~E.E Cummings

In this season finale episode we’ll reflect on this season’s guests and discuss the importance of embracing the “real you” the person behind the mask.  Masking refers to hiding your “Authentic Self” behind an external identity in an effort to gain greater acceptance. 

While it can be a struggle to embrace the true person, personality, and emotions underneath the masks we all wear, the gain of greater inner peace, freedom, love, and joy is worth the journey.
