In the Psycheverse
Psyche employs self-deprecation as both a defensive strategy against online trolls and a genuine expression of humility about her public role. She treats it as a spiritual practice—acknowledging her flaws and limitations publicly rather than projecting false perfection—which she frames as more authentic to her teaching than maintaining an untouchable guru persona.
