“It’s been proven over and over again that If you show up authentically in your relationships and you’re in alignment with who you really are, then you’re actually the most sexy, attractive version of yourself. People will feel comfortable around you: They’ll feel your confidence, they’ll feel magnetized to you, and you’ll feel really good because you’re standing in your truth.” –Jeff Guenther (@therapyjeff)
