The Dual Edge of Pride & Ego: Finding Balance Between Confidence and Humility
Student Doctor Oyinemi “Yemi” Iyebote joins Stranger Fruit Vol VI, Episode 6 to delve into the complexities of pride and ego. In this episode, we explore how pride can be both a source of strength and a potential downfall—much like the pride of lions that thrives on community yet faces challenges when arrogance creeps in. Ego, too, can be a powerful motivator or a silent saboteur. Where does it come from, and how do we keep it in check?
