Don’t Feed the Bullshit — Your Energy Is Your Most Valuable Asset
Life is complicated enough without making it tougher on yourself. In so many of my articles, I talk about mastering your emotions by stepping back when things happen and proactively deciding the role you want to play in your interactions—asking yourself what am I making this mean? before choosing your response. It’s about proactively embracing your self-sovereignty instead of reactively giving up your power in the situation. In this article, I want to dive into the details with real-life examples of situations that can quickly deplete your energy—your most valuable asset—on a daily basis.
You have an energetic body with root source code and vibrational patterns shaping your reality. Your biofield is the electromagnetic record of every thought, action, and belief, and it broadcasts that information 24/7. Using radical self-inquiry, energetic awareness, and tactical strategy, you can audit, decode, and rewire your energetic field to align your subconscious programming with your conscious desires. By identifying the beliefs and actions hijacking your frequency, you can hack them and update your own internal operating system.
One of the foundational building blocks in shifting your mindset is simply this: stop feeding the hungry bullshit hippo. Period. So let me give you some examples of what that looks like with a few “you and them” comparatives.
Dishonesty
I like to look at it from both angles—you and them.
You: What are you lying to yourself about—your thoughts, feelings, standards, identity, behaviors, or actions? How do you solve that? Be radically honest with yourself and change.
Them: What if others are being dishonest? You have two choices:
Extract yourself from entangling your energy with them and send them unconditional love for healing from afar.
Kindly but directly address the dishonesty in a conversation—entering into it with a win-win mindset.
Gossip
You: Do you judge or gossip about others? Reflect on the content of your gossip or judgment and understand that it mirrors something buried in your subconscious that isn’t healed—something about how you feel about yourself. Gossip is always a projection of you onto others- it is literally holding up a mirror of how you actually deeply feel about yourself.
Them: If others are gossiping, judging, or lying about you, don’t feed into it with explanations, justifications, or debates. That only feeds it your energy and gives away your power. If people believe the gossip or lies, it means something in their subconscious wanted to believe it—again, the mirror—and that is truly about them, not you.
Have faith that the truth will reveal itself through who you are and how you consistently show up. It’s only a matter of time. Allow people to learn their own lessons on their own timelines. Detach with forgiveness and love, because hate, revenge, reactive behavior, or needing an apology simply feeds energy into what no longer deserves your power. It is not your job to give your valuable energy to reinforce the toxic boulders others choose to carry. Allow them to hold their own weight and learn through their own energies.
Fear
You: I love the adage that fear is “false evidence appearing real.” Fear is not what is actually occurring in the present tense; it is what your mind is telling you could happen based on hidden beliefs you’ve been living by without knowing. It is not current data—it is your mind running its survival machinations.
Focus on the present and reclaim your sovereignty, clarity, and purpose. Rebirth into your truest form beyond current narratives, roles, identities, and scars to unlock the limitless you who wants to surpass fear by responding to what is actually happening in the moment.
Them: When others are experiencing their own fear triggers, that can manifest in relation to you—saying something out of pocket, sending a snarky email, trying to exert control, or suddenly ending what you thought was a budding new relationship. In so many cases, their fears (and resulting energies) are projected onto you, creating a domino effect that ignites your own triggers and reactions. It becomes a proverbial shitstorm.
Don’t let their energies dictate yours. Take a step back and evaluate your thoughts, behaviors, and anticipated actions. You cannot control others—you can only control yourself. As one of my favorite sayings goes, life can be much simpler: “If someone argues for their limitations, simply let them keep them.”
Ego
You: The ego is clever at dressing itself up as strength, but it is really a fragile construct built on outdated narratives about who you think you must be. It feeds on hierarchy, comparison, and the need to be right. Control over others is never a sign of confidence—it’s a flare fired from a place of fragility, weakness, and lost self-worth.
The ego is not current data; it’s your mind replaying old scripts of superiority, defensiveness, and survival. True power begins where the ego ends. It isn’t loud or forceful; it’s steady, present, and deeply aligned with who you actually are. When you stop performing for the world, you start inhabiting yourself.
Them: When others are moving through their own ego triggers, their energy can spill over onto you. Their reactions are rarely about you; more often, their ego feels unsafe, and it projects that instability outward. And just like that, your own ego can get activated—wanting to defend, retaliate, or prove something. The exchange becomes a power struggle neither person actually wants.
Don’t let their ego dictate your energy. Take a step back and observe your internal reactions. Ask yourself what part of you feels tempted to perform, protect, or push. You cannot dismantle someone else’s ego, but you can refuse to engage with it. Be discerning and curate your connections—limit access to your energy to those deserving of reciprocal VIP treatment. Let your boundaries guide you toward relationships that expand instead of diminish you.
Learn to decode external chaos as a mirror for internal transformation. Just be you- your best you. And treasure your most valuable commodity- your energy. Create authenticity and unconditional love for yourself and others- that is the highest vibration. Shift your field from reactive to magnetic—from attracting lessons to creating aligned reality. And allow the law of cause and effect to take care of the rest.
It is your blueprint. Your self-sovereignty. Your choice.
Don't feed the hungry bullshit hippo.
