Is Your Ego Destroying Your Love Life?

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Over the past 15 years, I've coached so many high-achieving individuals who seemingly have it all, but for whom finding love is a massive struggle. What's holding them back? FEAR.


They fear that opening themselves up and facing rejection could shatter the identity they've built as a confident and accomplished person. To me, this is shame, as it is clear their ego is getting in the way of being happy.
