Description

Are you addicted to insights that sound smart but keep you comfortable? Dan calls out the ego’s tendency to collect spiritual frameworks like trophies while avoiding discomfort. This episode examines insight addiction versus real personal growth, challenging you to stop screenshotting truth for later and start living it. You’ll learn to distinguish between knowledge that soothes and truth that slices open your assumptions.

Episode highlights:

• How the ego disguises avoidance as intellectual sophistication.
• Why consuming truth means losing friends, idols or parts of your identity.
• Practical rituals for leaning into discomfort as a sacred practice.
