I thought I was healed. But the truth? Fear was still running my life — hiding under the mask of confidence, control, and pride.
In this episode, I open up about the moment I realized my childhood trauma didn’t just leave scars — it built an ego that I thought was protecting me… but was actually holding me back.
This isn’t about arriving at the finish line. I’m still in the process of dying to the version of me my childhood created — the one who learned to survive through control, who mistook fear for wisdom, and who confused ego with strength.
We’ll talk about:
- How childhood fear can disguise itself as confidence
- Why ego can sneak back in during your healing journey
- The real-life costs of not checking your pride — financially, professionally, and relationally
- How to protect your progress through intentional boundaries with yourself and others
If you’ve ever felt like old habits keep trying to creep back in — even after you’ve done “the work” — this episode is for you.
