The ego… your shadow… is a POWER PORTAL.

For years, I thought I had to punish all my ego-centric’isms—manipulating to get my needs met, constant striving to burn my karma, pretending to behave. But actually? I’ve needed to assimilate… embrace… and talk sweetly to my shadows.

The ego is the unhealed part of us. More precisely, “it’s the way our unhealed self acts.” It’s not a villain—it’s a pattern. And that “pattern” is always trying to protect you from heartbreak or rejection.

What if, instead of saying That’s my ego I need to get in check… we just said:

“Whoops, I was ego-ing. I can get back to Loving.”

Because ultimately: Light, shadow, light.

In this episode:

  • A liberating definition of the ego (that’s not outdated personal growth dogma)
  • Why bravado and deep insecurity are both ego disguises
  • “Ego’ing” vs. Loving—how to tell the difference
  • Why ego is not your enemy—and what it’s really asking for
