In a year of AI and discerning deepfakes from reality, it’s no surprise that Merriam-Webster has declared “authentic” the word of the year.

As 2023 winds down and 2024 comes roaring into view, it’s worth considering: How are you bringing your authentic self into the new year?

Is it a new hobby? Finding a new job? Setting a resolution? Aim high, but stay true to yourself.
