The Upside of Selfishness: A Fresh Take with Steph and Beth

We think of selfish as negative, but society has put the word in such a tiny little funnel, and that's what we're talking about is: get it out like, it's not a this or that.
Ever been told that being selfish is a bad thing? In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', hosts Stephanie Kostopoulos and Beth Demme flip that idea on its head. They argue that selfishness, often seen as a negative trait, can actually be beneficial. Society has conditioned us to think putting ourselves first is wrong, but Steph and Beth challenge this notion by exploring the positive aspects of selfishness.
Through candid conversations and personal stories, they highlight how knowing your own needs and prioritizing them can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life. They emphasize that being selfish doesn’t mean neglecting others; rather, it’s about finding a healthy balance where you can take care of yourself first, so you’re better equipped to support those around you. If you’ve ever felt guilty about putting yourself first, this episode offers a refreshing perspective that might just change your mind.
