In this episode of Cultural Chemistry, Josh and Jayda dive into the role of ego in relationships and whether striving to be completely egoless is the key to a stronger partnership. They explore how ego shapes identity, influences emotional responses, and can both strengthen and challenge a relationship’s dynamic. They discuss how ego is often tied to survival instincts and social conditioning, leading to power struggles, the need to be right, and unsolicited advice in relationships. Through personal experiences, they reflect on the balance between masculine and feminine energy, the importance of evolving together, and how ego can fuel unnecessary competition instead of collaboration. Josh and Jayda also break down how ego is linked to time—often pulling people into the past or future rather than keeping them grounded in the present moment. They share their experiences with ego loss, from deep meditation to psychedelic journeys, and emphasize how presence, mindfulness, and self-awareness can help couples minimize ego-driven conflicts. If you’ve ever struggled with pride, communication barriers, or the desire to always be “right” in your relationship, this episode offers valuable insights and practical tools—like meditation and intentional breathing—to foster deeper connection and emotional balance.   Book a Free Breakthrough Session Subscribe on YouTube Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Tiktok Share Your Story with Us   Take our compatibility quiz(coming soon) Connect with other diverse couples in our FREE community(coming soon)
