Why You Need to Stop Trying to Get Rid of the Ego
I see many spiritual and personal growth teachers and coaches positioning the ego as the enemy. Something to "get rid of".
This teaching completely misses the mark in my experience and opinion.
Our ego is our protector.
Believe it or not, she's got your back in a big way.
When your ego seems to mean to you, she really believes that being mean to you will protect you by "hurting you before others can hurt you." It may sound crazy, but she believes this is helpful.
