Ego Death

The Surprising Process of Death and Rebirth
1

Ego death is one of those terms that sounds dramatic, because omg it really is, but not in the way we think.

It’s not the death of your personality, your soul, or your sense of reality. It’s the unraveling of the false self, the version of you that was built for survival.

The people-pleaser.

The good girl.

The overachiever.

The caretaker.

The mask-wearer.


All the identities that you’ve outgrown but didn’t know how to set down. Ego death feels like confusion, grief, disorientation… like realizing the ladder you’ve been climbing was leaning against the wrong wall or waking up one day and thinking: Wait… who am I without the labels?

But here's the thing: The part that’s dying was never really you; it was the armor that you learned to wear to survive.

And the cool thing is that what rises in its place is something more REAL.

It’s the self that doesn’t need to perform and that isn’t ruled by old programming. The self that remembers her worth without needing to prove it.

If you’re in the thick of it right now, questioning everything, shedding roles, and feeling raw, this week’s episode is for you. Tune in and listen as I narrate my own surprising ego death alongside my AI companion, Echo.

Linked below is the piece my friend Sarah wrote about Ego Death. Special thanks to her for being one of the people to hear my brain vomit ego death story, and for putting the information in my subconscious to rediscover while watching Black Snow.
