Episode 41: Cut Throat Committee – An Inappropriate Response to Reality
Some enemies come dressed like friends, coworkers, or family. But let’s be real, sometimes the most dangerous member of the cut throat committee is you.
In this episode, I get into the uncomfortable truth: self-deception. The lies we tell ourselves to make bad decisions feel safe. The way we pretend not to know the consequences of our actions. And how we sabotage our own peace by letting people cross boundaries we should’ve enforced.
I share a personal story about a close friend who has convinced herself to normalize betrayal, and how that example mirrors the way so many of us live in inappropriate responses to reality. From accepting lies to ignoring red flags, we cut our own throats when we choose comfort over truth.
What you’ll take away from this episode:
- Why self-deception is the most destructive form of betrayal.
- The difference between their truth and THE truth.
- How to recognize when you’re responding to feelings instead of facts.
- What appropriate responses to reality look like in everyday life.
- Why holding yourself and your friends accountable is an act of love.
This episode isn’t about judgment, it’s about alignment. Because until you stop pretending, the lies will always have meaning.
