Ego Was Here

Conversations about who we are, what shapes us,
and the stories we leave behind.







Conversations
about who we are,
what shapes us,
and the stories
we leave behind.

THE NAME

EGO MEANS “I”

The word ego comes from the Greek egó — “I.”
At its simplest, it is the self: the person who experiences, remembers, feels and says, I am here.

THE MEANING

I WAS HERE

Ego Was Here is a quiet declaration of presence.
I was here. I lived. I felt. I mattered.
Every person leaves a trace. Every story matters.

MEET THE HOST

ANNA IRIS

Actress, producer, indie filmmaker, published novelist and podcast host, Anna Iris has built her creative life around stories, telling them, writing them, producing them and creating space for others to tell their own.
With Ego Was Here, she turns that curiosity toward people, who they are, what has shaped them, and the stories that have made them who they are.

THE CONVERSATIONS

WHO ARE WE
BENEATH IT ALL?

Conversations about identity, vulnerability, ambition, reinvention, and the experiences that shape who we are.
