We watch people make naked power grabs and cringe, turning away from embracing power as something that is within the realm of the narcissistic. It feels incongruent with our values, with being a good person. What Gruenfeld argues is that it is, in fact, impossible to be a good person - one who is respected by others and ourselves - without getting comfortable with power. A good person does what's best for the group and sometimes that means standing up for others with less power, putting a bad actor in their place or letting someone else be in charge so that the group can move forward.

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness seemed to be only for those at the top. Something had to be done for everyone else. Someone had to speak up. Soon Emma was delivering rousing speeches on topics like workers’ rights, feminism, and the atrocities of capitalism.
