This Is What You Need To Hear Right Now: It's time for an ego shed!
We recorded a podcast today for Alignment Academy with Kristen Such and we got into a very interesting topic around ego when dating. We've certainly touched on this before, but there was a term she used "ego shed" that really resonated with us. She was talking about the times where she had to get real about what she really wanted (a relationship) and start to look at ways that she shed her ego instead of hiding from it playing the cool girl or not honoring the truth of what she really wanted out of fear of not getting it. And we've certainly been here ourselves (we have whole part in our book around 'Is it Love or Ego?'). But sometimes the biggest movement in love comes from letting go of our egos.
To really get vulnerable about what we want in life and approach it knowing that yes it may hurt our egos, but in the end, does it even matter? What's more important is that we go after what we truly want!

Book Review of the week
"Self-help as a genre tends to be... trash. It's even worse when the subject is dating/relationships. This is the rare gem that approaches it from a different, much more valuable angle. They don't waste anytime burying the lead - despite the title of the book, *you are already dateable*. The rest is just understanding how to cultivate and be confident in your authentic self, and how to recognize/avoid some common pitfalls. As a casual listener of the podcast, I listened to the audiobook which felt like a very natural extension of it - but instead of it being a "bonus episode", it felt like a strong summary of their many years of content."
Pick up the book (or audiobook) now if you haven't yet. And leave us a review on Amazon, Goodreads, or wherever else you got the book (Audible, Barnes & Noble, Spotify, etc.)
