Ben and also, hi, Heather.

Heather's here, everybody.

Hi, Heather.

Hi, Heather.

Heather, you have started writing again, and it's wonderful. H.B. Unfiltered. It's a miracle.

Took a long break, but you're back. And so I'm pumped for that. I always loved your blog in years past.

And so we wanted to bring you on to talk about one of your blogs. I think you put it out maybe December called the Three Evil E ease. And you wrote, these are the three things

that I feel severely limit our level of happiness. There are three things that leave us endlessly

walking around, wishing and wanting more than we already have. And so the three evil ease we're going to

talk about today. Egos, expectations, and end games. So I want to dive right in. Okay. Ego. What do you mean when you say ego and why is it one of the three evil ease?

I think that ego is like the overprotective parent. It's kind of like the thing in our heads that's just saying, no, you're better than that person, no matter what they said

or what they did or what you did. And you deserve that spot on the team or you deserve that

job that you applied for. It's them. It's not you. It's kind of like the parent that doesn't want

their child to get hurt at all by normal life things. It's like our defense mechanism. And I think it's like

everything else. If you don't allow yourself the room to be imperfect, then you can't really grow.
