Our society has an unhealthy obsession with politicians, celebrities, social media influencers, musicians, billionaires, and many other prominent figures. We have raised them up as idols in our world, often overlooking the entirety of their life for one specific trait or characteristic that is attractive to us. This attraction is known in the psychology world as the Halo Error.
Humans have been laying down their lives for centuries, often to impress and earn favor to leaders and those that would bless their families with wealth and success. We have not moved far from this ideology as we still prop up Hollywood Actors such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Billionaires like Bill Gates or Elon Musk, or politicians like Donald Trump or Joe Biden. There is a ceremonious symbolic relationship given by individuals with power ad wealth over the masses. It is unhealthy. I believe a global awakening will occur when people understand their own bold, and fiercely made story is just as powerful. This episode is to help bring light and awareness to our psychological state.
