Being honest, authentic, and purposeful in everything we do.

TAKEAWAYS:

Integrity is much more than just refraining from lying or stealing. It is about wholeness, authenticity, and being completely aligned with what we are up to in the world.

The Four Pillars of Integrity, per Gay and Katie Hendricks, are:

1. Take 100% responsibility (see Episode 5 of Engaging with a Messy World)

2. Speak authentically

3. Feel your feelings through to completion (see Episode 2)

4. Impeccable agreements
