Manage episode 473080783 series 3589518
Pride can be an invisible barrier, quietly stealing joy from life’s simplest moments.
Why do experiences that should bring happiness often create tension instead?
How can a game of foosball shift from fun to frustration the moment your self-image feels threatened?
In this episode, Seth Roberts explores how the mental pictures we create of ourselves being "smart," "good," or "winners" can limit our ability to enjoy life fully. By letting go of the need to protect our self-image, we open the door to experiencing joy without judgment and learning without fear.
Listen now to discover how releasing pride might be the key to finally enjoying life as it is.
