On this episode, I explore the failure of the Villain Ethos.
Not as a single mistake or moral flaw. But as a pattern that feels clarifying at first, and quietly limits growth, the longer we stay inside it.
We examine why blaming villains can feel productive, how outrage gets mistaken for movement, why certainty replaces curiosity, and how responsibility slowly gets outsourced in the process.
I break down how this pattern forms, why it’s so compelling, and what changes when we stop looking for someone to blame and start taking ownership of what comes next.
If you’ve ever felt justified but stuck, clear but unchanged, or certain about what was wrong without knowing how to move forward, then this episode is for you.
We hope you enjoy this one.
