Hero-ing is Hurting You: How to Shift Into Your Own Genius

Seeking the approval of others, helping people without being asked, putting famous people on a pedestal. These behaviors might seem completely unrelated, but they are symptoms of the same thing - hero-ing. Anytime we're not acting from our own inner value, we're relinquishing our power to an external source, which is dangerous.   Hero-ing ourselves, or being heroed by others, could be a way to run away from our own genius. And it can actually be a sneaky manifestation of the upper limit problem. Hero-ing actually exacerbates that drama triangle even further, and makes it harder for us to stand in our own genius, resourcefulness, and worth.   What does self-hero-ing tell us about ourselves? How can we have opposing opinions and ideas without hurting one another, and without relinquishing our power to someone else? In this episode, we're digging into the topic of hero-ing again and sharing why hero-ing ourselves is as dangerous as hero-ing others.   We are now so exposed, anyone can say anything, to anyone, at any time and that makes it harder to have boundaries. -Sophie Chiche   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    -Why we become heroes Are you being a hero because you're unwilling to stand in your own light?   -A truth we have to face  It's important for us to stand in our own essence and value, but social media makes it really hard.
