36. Ego vs. You: Who’s Really Running Your Life?
In this episode of the Resonance podcast, I connect with James Stark, creator of the ALIM Method, emotional intelligence teacher, and guide in deep subconscious integration.
For over a decade, James has supported thousands of people worldwide in moving beyond temporary peak experiences and into grounded, embodied transformation. His work focuses on emotional self-reliance, nervous system coherence, and lived integration, helping people step out of cycles of seeking and into conscious being.
Together, we explore what it really means to transcend the ego, move beyond survival patterns, and live from deeper awareness rather than conditioned identity.
Ready to see who’s actually running your life: your ego, or your true self? Let’s dive in!
