Have you ever wondered why you feel stuck in relationships, business, or life despite trying your hardest to be everything to everyone? In this episode, Dawn Bradley uncovers the hidden role your ego plays in self-sabotage. Spoiler: Ego isn’t just about overconfidence—it’s insecurity in disguise.

Dawn explores:

• Why people-pleasing and playing small are ego-driven behaviors.
• How avoidance and defensiveness keep you in a loop of frustration.
• Why vulnerability is the antidote to ego and the key to authentic confidence.
• Practical strategies to initiate tough conversations and build stronger relationships.

Through raw honesty and personal anecdotes, Dawn invites you to step out of your comfort zone, take responsibility, and show up courageously in every area of your life.
