Alter vs. EGO: Which One Drives You?
Have you ever felt torn between keeping the peace and standing your ground? Between graceful restraint and bold action? That push and pull—that internal conflict—is exactly why I wrote The Alter & EGO Principles.
In every woman, there are two powerful forces at play: Alter and EGO. Knowing which one drives you can be the key to unlocking your full potential.
Let’s find out: Which one leads the way in your life?
The Two Forces Within You
💡 Alter is the side of you that is composed, strategic, and graceful under pressure. She knows how to hold back when needed, how to navigate challenges with patience, and how to command respect with quiet strength.
🔥 EGO is your bold, fearless, and unapologetic powerhouse. She refuses to be silenced, she speaks her truth without hesitation, and she walks into every room knowing she belongs there.
Both are essential. But the real power comes from knowing when to lead with Alter and when to let EGO take the wheel.

Your Challenge: Harness Both
The goal is not to silence one side, but to understand when to use each. This week, try this: ✅ If you’re Alter-dominant, challenge yourself to speak up boldly in a situation where you’d normally hold back. ✅ If you’re EGO-driven, practice strategic restraint in a moment where you’d usually react fast.
✨ Balance is power.✨
