In this week's episode the ladies discuss the book, Ego is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday. Listen in as the two discuss the true definition of ego and the three stages of life (Aspire. Success. Failure.) where Holiday believes that the ego is often not only present, but can also be the culprit of our shortcomings.
