Episode #120 - Harmony vs Authenticity
Thursday, 26 February, 2026

In this episode I explore the idea of harmony vs authenticity. Many times in our relationships we choose to have harmony over expressing our truth. In her book, Growing Yourself Up, Jenny Brown discusses how as we mature and grow in our relationships we should move towards truth and honesty over keeping harmony. Harmony often results in suppressing our truth or eroding our boundaries we may have set. That creates fusion as opposed to differentiation of self. According to Bowen Family Systems Theory, differentiation should be our goal.Enjoy this short but thought provoking episode: Are you someone that chooses Harmony or do you push through discomfort and choose authenticity.For about me visit my website www.ryanwynder.com You can also email me @ ryanwynder@gmail.com I am also on Instagram @thevegastherapist
