More than a feeling

On August 12, 2026, NIST released a concept paper on human-centered cybersecurity. The paper lays out a plan to build practical guidelines that treat people as central to security. NIST now wants public feedback before it decides what to build next. The comment window runs through September 30, 2026. Anyone can weigh in by email. The agency frames this as a chance to shape the guidelines from the ground up.

This week on The Resonant Identity, Terence sits down with author, teacher, and spiritual-development guide David Alan Brown, a leader who has spent more than thirty years teaching personal empowerment, authenticity, and intentional living.  David’s work spans progressive congregations, youth leadership programs, corporate development, and his signature course Convergence, which helps people “recognize and regulate their inner voices to live intentionally and achieve our goals.” Together, Terence and David explore how Embodied Awareness and Somatic discipline form the foundation of identity transformation. David opens the conversation by grounding himself—“Whenever you ask that question, it causes me to put my feet on the ground… how am I showing up today?”—a moment that sets the tone for a deeply resonant dialogue about presence, authenticity, and the internal cues that shape our choices. What We Explore in This Episode Embodied Awareness & Somatic Discipline David shares how attunement, bodily cues, and emotional regulation became central to his life’s work. His story reveals how somatic awareness helps us widen our window of choice—the space where grounded, identity-aligned decisions become possible. Resonance, Light Cues & Identity Coherence Terence and David connect their frameworks, highlighting how resonance shows up as “pure joy, pure excitement… your entire being lights up.” These light cues signal alignment between internal identity and external action, forming the basis of identity coherence. The Human Element David describes how authentic human connection transforms leadership, community, and personal development. Whether working with youth or Fortune 500 executives, he sees the same universal need: psychological safety, empathy, and genuine presence. As he puts it, “What kind of human are you showing up with in this place?” Turning Points, Crisis, and Awakening David shares candidly about the moments that forced him into deeper self-awareness—including depression, numbness, and the collapse of his marriage. His honesty illustrates how identity collapse can become the catalyst for profound transformation. “People bear what they bear until they can’t anymore,” he says, reflecting on the moment he realized he needed help and chose authenticity over avoidance. Authenticity as a Superpower In one of the episode’s most powerful insights, David offers this embodied truth: “Your superpower is your authenticity.” He explains how stepping fully into his authentic self changed his relationships, his work, and his ability to serve others. About David Alan Brown David is the author of The Self-Help Paradox and Answer the Call: What to Do When the Spirit Arrives to Transform Your Life, and creator of the Convergence program. His work blends spirituality, psychology, leadership, and personal development into accessible, actionable practices.
