Ep. 168 - How to stop putting people on pedestals

May 13, 2022 10:45 - 38 minutes - 35.5 MB

Influencers, celebs and mega coaches are often treated as mythical Gods. We think they’re untouchable, immune to the suffering life brings, and have zero worries in the world. We think they don’t deal with the “everyday” things we do — paying an extra $25 on DoorDash for a 14 inch pizza that costs $18 or feeling insecure when their crush ghosts them on Date 3. When we put them on pedestals, we dehumanize them. In the same vein, we make ourselves small. The automatic comparison and projecti...

We all have intuition. That deeper knowing. That feeling you can’t explain. It usually comes to us in moments of stillness. In today’s world, stillness is... practically non-existent. We’re too busy to meditate. Too tired to journal. Too impatient to do breath-work. Not to mention, absolutely inundated with content, opinions, news, and requests.
