This episode is about the energetic reason these patterns keep showing up around distorted power, without using that explanation to excuse harm.

One of the terms Mellissa uses for this is projection load.

When people become highly visible, others may adore them, hate them, want them, resent them, worship them, criticize them, and imagine them into roles they never agreed to hold.

All of that carries energy. It lands in their field.

With grounded support, someone can come back to center, wisdom, and integrity. Without it, they can start believing the projection, relaxing into the fluffed ego, and feeling bigger than life. That is where the hunger can take over.
