Happiness Through Authenticity with Jacquelyn Phillips

Feeling unfulfilled, unhappy, or dissatisfied? It's time to find out why and build your happiness step-by-step through self-esteem, confidence, and being authentic to the real you, not the character. The effects will ripple into the work you do as well as your community. 

Jacquelyn is a photographer and author of Comfortably Uncomfortable: The Road to Happiness Isn't Always Paved. The book is a story of change and a memoir about breaking down her biggest obstacle—herself.

Quotes to remember: 

“It’s very humbling to have to surrender.” 

“It’s really easy to get lost in fitting a mold… but it’s never fulfilling and it’s never satisfying.”

“Ultimately, you have to let go of the judgment you hold against yourself.”

Takeaways:

• We continue to grow in adulthood emotionally
