Growth, true personal growth, is a big life long fear that connects to many of our other fears - the fear of abandonment, fear of failure, fear of success and more. But as you all know by now, Ali and I are big advocates of becoming *comfortable with our fears and understanding fear*. Fear after all is our most important emotion. It is there to protect us so we can survive – but like an over-protective parent, it can also sabotage our development by making us afraid of our true potential and growth. The ego, which I often synonymously call fear, operates in a similarly limiting way and it needs to be understood and overcome too.
 
Prof. Jane Lovinger, a brilliant development psychologist I’ve recently been researching on seems to have done really unique work on the study of the evolution of the ego…. In fact, she outlines 9 specific stages on how we can rise above the primitive stages of ego (which we can get stuck in) into a state where the ego eventually dissipates into egoless-ness.
 
If I apply these 9 stages in becoming egoless instead as 9 tangible steps for us to use and climb as individuals, perhaps we’ll all collectively grow from a place of fear into fearlessness.

During yet another COVID lockdown, the US elections and its aftermath, and the various crises in the world, Ali and I think, it's time to get growing! 

This episode is personal and political and for all of us!

Fearlessly yours, 
Tania and Ali
