About this episode
Cambridge Dictionary refers to the ego as the idea or opinion that we have of ourselves. We can consider the ego as the ongoing conscious experience of existence and of what “I am” in relation to that experience of existence. But the current understanding of what we are is very individualistic and it's focused on that ego as being an entirely separate entity that is able to choose behaviour, to make independent decisions, that can be built up, can become more confident and can have more sense of worth until it becomes healthy, which is the ultimate goal. So the healthy ego is seen as an ego that has a substantial belief in itself. What we are going to consider in this episode, though, is that actually that is a completely unhealthy ego, and we are going to unpack what a really healthy ego feels like.
