Listen Later

In this episode, we’re diving into the topic of ego resistance and how it shows up during your self-development journey—especially when working through sexual shadow work and shame. 🧠✨

💡 You’ll learn how to identify the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs of ego resistance, recognize the difference between ego and intuition, and navigate through it using the Hero’s Journey framework. We also explore why your ego might sabotage your growth, how to recognize when it’s holding you back, and strategies to push through when anxiety, fear, and procrastination arise.

Topics Covered:

  • Understanding ego resistance and why it happens
  • Ego vs. intuition: How to tell them apart
  • How to overcome the ego’s refusal of your “call to adventure”
  • Navigating the trials and challenges of self-transformation
  • Using the Hero’s Journey to overcome resistance and reclaim your power
  • Why sexual shadow work often triggers more resistance (and how to move through it!)
