About Living Authentically - Becoming your True Self

This podcast is where we explore what it really means to live, speak, and connect from a place of truth and kindness.   We will look to dive into the psychology, the practice, and the power of showing up as your real self — in your work, your relationships, and your everyday life. Whether you're a leader, a communicator, or simply someone seeking deeper alignment, this space is for you. Together, we’ll unpack the habits, beliefs, and fears that keep us performing instead of living and we’ll discover tools, stories, and strategies to help you build trust, speak with confidence, and create meaningful impact — all by being unapologetically you. So if you're ready to stop hiding, start thriving, and become the person you were always meant to be — you're in the right place!

This episode is all about Digital Identity - I wanted to share what it was like for me personally growing up not having the internet or even a mobile telephone to the situation we find ourselves in today.  With data being available online in multiple formats including social media, virtual communities and the information stored about us as people and our lives, it can be easy to forget how our online presence can have a large impact on our overall identity.  Follow Sue Whitaker on;  Instagram - www.instagram.com/blackstarhr/ [https://www.instagram.com/blackstarhr/] Facebook - www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572752343673 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572752343673] LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/susandawhitaker [http://www.linkedin.com/in/susandawhitaker]

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
