In this thought-provoking episode of the Hardcore Human Design Podcast, hosts Miko and Celestina dive deep into the ego center and explore the often misunderstood concepts of selfishness and self-worth. As two ego authorities themselves (Miko as an ego projector and Celestina as an ego manifester), they share personal stories and insights about the challenges they've faced living with defined egos in a society that often misinterprets healthy self-prioritization as selfishness.
Join them as they unpack:
- The fundamental differences between defined and undefined ego centers (and what it means for the 70% of people with undefined egos)
- How childhood conditioning around "selfishness" can shape our relationship with ourselves
- Why making promises with an undefined ego often leads to burnout and health challenges
- The importance of following your heart pulls as an ego authority
- Practical reframes to transform "selfish" into "self-clarity" and "self-value"
- Why filling your own cup first isn't selfish—it's necessary
Whether you have a defined or undefined ego, this episode offers valuable insights on deconditioning from societal expectations and honoring your authentic design. Learn how to recognize when you're "shoulding" on yourself and discover strategies to reconnect with what truly fills you.
