A New Soulful Cure for Your Painful Obsession with Seeking Attention

For this fabulous episode of Wake Up Wednesday, I want to ask you an important question:

What is better than seeking attention and always being in the spotlight? I’ll reveal the answer in today’s episode, press play and watch it now.

We’re all souls having a human experience, right? So we have egos.

Our egos are a mashup of our personal life experience, culture and the collective consciousness of our society.

There are 4 main needs our egos are looking to achieve and fulfill at all times:

1. Love/connection

2. Certainty

3. Significance

4. Variety

For most of us, one of these needs becomes the vehicle we use to experience the other needs at a higher level – though we don’t always realize it as we discover in today’s episode.

But when we recognize our ego’s needs, we can find ways to fulfill those desires that are healthy, and connect us more deeply to our fellow human beings, and the planet.

So – what makes the “ego needs” I listed so significant?

Because, when you dive down deep into your desires, goals, and habits, you’ll notice that one of them is the driving force in your life – and it’s something that often defines your personality.

For example, certainty-driven sisters will seek out respectable jobs that are more likely to deliver a predictable outcome. They thrive in corporate and office environments.

Variety-driven sisters will find the entrepreneurial life challenging, as their desires for change make it difficult to establish a niche, or take consistent actions like creating content, or posting newsletters weekly.

The coaches and thought leaders, and creatives I’ve met are almost always love/connection-driven at their core.

But if you’re anything like me, then significance becomes your vehicle, or the green light signal, that you have achieved love and connection at your highest potential.

This is why I’m willing to take the stage and share my thoughts if it will entertain, connect and enliven another soul.

I share more about this in today’s episode so be sure to click play above and watch it.

I take pride in being one my friends, family and clients count on for support. I like being in the spotlight, because it increases the amount of people I can be connected to, and the love I can give and feel.

See how that works?

There’s just one problem: seeking significance usually requires constant acknowledgement from the self or (dangerously) the outside world. It doesn’t feel good to always need to be seen and heard to feel loved. It can be tough, and even painful sometimes.

So I went on a mission to find freedom from the ego’s need for significance… and I found the answer which I share in today’s episode.

There is magnifying, powerful beauty all around us and within us.

And, when you’re able to tune into that powerful gorgeousness, acknowledge it, and let it flow through you – you feel connection on a whole new level!

On this little adventure of mine, I made a list of ways I could find magnificence anytime, anywhere, to feed my spiritual self, and release my ego – even just for a little while.

Now, I want to pass them on to you!
