What if your suffering isn't coming from your circumstances, but from your stories?

Through personal stories and hard-won lessons, she reveals how the ego fuels self-imposed suffering, how gratitude can evolve your perspective, and why true leadership begins with self-reflection. Alongside Jessica Mogill, Cy shares the practices and mindset shifts that can help you stop resisting reality and start showing up with clarity, calm, and compassion.
Here's what you'll learn:
Your peace begins where your ego ends — and this episode shows you the way.
