Hey there,
Let’s talk about the ego. That sneaky little voice living rent-free in your head, pretending it’s the real you. Spoiler alert: it’s not.
Your ego isn’t “bad.” It’s not the villain in your life story—it’s just a collection of narratives, fears, and self-imposed rules you’ve been carrying around. But here’s the kicker: it burns so much energy.
While you’re out here trying to live your best life, your ego’s siphoning off your bandwidth—worrying about what people think, clinging to labels, or trying to control things that were never yours to control.
Want proof? Watch a cat. Seriously, just watch a cat. They’re walking, purring Zen masters. No overthinking, no shame spirals—they just exist. If you want a glimpse of life without ego, that’s it.
Here’s the wild part: when you loosen your ego’s grip, you discover true freedom. Not the “quit-your-job-and-move-to-Bali” kind, but the kind where you stop giving so many f*cks about pride, status, or what Karen in accounting thinks about your shoes.
The rarest thing in the world is a truly free soul. These people are magnetic, not because they’re perfect, but because they’ve let go of the BS.
Here’s your homework:
- Watch your ego like a hawk.
- Notice when it’s holding you back.
- Call it out. Laugh at it if you have to.
The less you take your ego seriously, the more you can channel your energy into the stuff that actually matters—connection, creativity, joy.
Because the less you’re run by your ego, the more life you’ll actually get to live.
Stay real,
Polly xxx
P.S. If you’re feeling brave, spend a day living like a cat—totally present, unapologetically weird, and blissfully ego-free. Hit reply and let me know how it goes.
