Description

I’ve noticed something lately: the moment I say “higher self,” some people flinch. That single word “higher” suddenly feels loaded - like I’m sneaking in hierarchy, superiority, or spiritual one-upmanship. And honestly? I get it.


In this episode of The Higher Self Dialogues, I dig into why “higher” triggers discomfort in so many of us right now, and why after wrestling with it myself I’ve decided not to ditch the term.


What You’ll Learn


Understanding the Flinch: How I get how “higher” can rub the wrong way, and the cultural moment that’s making us allergic to anything that smells like power.

Higher ≠ Better: Why I see it as expanded perspective and bandwidth, not rank, and why the ego hates that distinction. 

Discomfort Is the Door: The exact moment your higher self shows up, it exposes every bias you have about spirituality itself. That friction? It’s the point.
