Naked Psychology with Doug and KendallThe “Main Character Energy”
Description
Have you ever been told to “romanticize your life” or “walk like you’re the main character”? If so, you’ve already brushed up against the viral trend known as Main Character Energy (MCE). It’s all over TikTok, Instagram, and pop culture—encouraging you to step into the spotlight, reclaim your narrative, and treat your everyday life like a movie where you’re the star.
Sounds empowering, right? Well… maybe. But here’s the thing: when does confidence turn into conceit? And how do you know if you're stepping into your power or just curating a highlight reel?
In this episode of Naked Psychology, we dig into the psychology behind this trend—what it gets right, where it goes wrong, and how to build real, grounded confidence that doesn’t depend on likes, applause, or aesthetic filters.
