Sarah Hodges is an executive coach, speaker, and founder of Hodges Coaching and the Hodges Leadership Institute, an on-demand training program that improves corporate culture through leadership EQ training. Her warm and direct coaching style is backed by her proprietary neurophysiological A+ Coaching Method.  Sarah has strong convictions about showing up as her authentic self at all times, so whether you're a client, employee, or world leader, Sarah will present herself exactly the same.

In this episode Jason and Sarah discuss:

• What is it like to fully show up as your authentic self
• How you can start to bring out your authentic self 
• What is the opposite of authenticity and how being authentic yourself allows others to also become their authentic selves 
• The scientific basis behind authenticity 
• Survival vs SurThrival

Key Takeaways: 

• Know your value system and commit to sticking to it no matter where you are and who you’re with 
• Be yourself without hurting others - be considerate of other people’s values and be respectful of them. But at the same time, don’t let other people’s opinions or perceptions of you affect how you show up. 
• Being authentic is all about silencing the voice of the inner critic and letting go of controlling another person’s perception of you 
• Let people form their opinion about you without manipulating them. 

“The opposite of authenticity is a desire to control. You want to keep yourself safe by controlling the perception of those around you… do you want to be accepted for this version of yourself you show others or do you want to be accepted for who you truly are?” -Sarah Hodges
