Great thread!!!!
This is a good topic and one to really think about.
I think of my authentic self as my core of all identities rolled into one being...me. I have a lot of identities, mother, daughter, girlfriend, nurse, femme, ect... But, without the identities and their changes over the years, i am still my authentic self. In other words, my identities can change as i evolve and grow and become. My authentic self is the core of my being, the "here you are spot" in my world and conscious. I guess i don't find they are in conflict because the authentic self of *me* wins. This comes to mind... "A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet" Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Call me what you want, label me an identity or i will identify myself. Doesn't change the essence of the mother ship in my soul. I am who i am.
