Owning Your Narrative: From Responsibility to Self-Authority
In this episode of The No Cry Zone, Jim Best explores what it truly means to own your personal narrative — to be the author of your life story using your own words, on your own terms. You’ll discover how an authentic, empowering story shapes your self-image, sets your expectations, and drives every choice you make.
Jim dives into the essential links between responsibility, accountability, and self-authority, showing how each step builds on the last. You’ll learn why responsibility without accountability is just wishful thinking, and how holding yourself to your own standards keeps your story honest and powerful.
Join Jim for a practical and inspiring conversation that will help you stop living in someone else’s story — and start creating a life you’re proud to tell.
