Episode 003 | Amber Rashid: The Hero Syndrome
Most of us have received the call to be in service, to something bigger than ourselves. First, however, it is essential to reflect on what it means to be in service. I recently read "The Hero Syndrome" by Cortney Palm, and it brought a lot of awareness to what being in service means to me personally as I walk this path in this lifetime. I wanted to share this article with everyone because it is an important topic that needs awareness and should not be forgotten. If you wish to read the article, you can find it posted on my website .
