  • Ep. 043 - The Dark Side of Self Improvement

    Self-improvement is one of those things most humans spend their entire lives striving towards. There is a natural desire and drive to grow, improve ourselves, and get better. This innate desire is what has driven the human species to where we are today. The act of self-improvement is admired, respected, and even encouraged by society. However, there is a dark side to it that very few people become aware of.

    In this episode, I dive into the negative side of self-improvement that very few people see. Why this happens and how we can not only bring awareness and understanding of the harm self-improvement can have on us but also how to have a better relationship with it.

    From chasing self-love through external validation to having the never-ending feeling that we are not enough. This episode encapsulates all you need to know about self-improvement and the misconceptions we have about it.
