Status is a ubiquitous feature of belonging, but it comes with a hidden price - a fear of its loss; status anxiety. Whether captured by a real audience or the audience in our imaginations, a fear of status loss suppresses the full creative range of our thoughts, expressions, and vitality. The most honest and complete way I have found to free myself from this capture is by an exposure therapy I call status burning. In this session, we will explore the concept of status burning, practicing it in real-time, and discussing it.
