It is easy to forget that peace of mind is not about chasing constant happiness, but about learning to live with the full range of our emotions. This episode explores how we can find an even keel in an unpredictable world and why acceptance may be one of the most overlooked skills for wellbeing.
Through honest reflection and grounded wisdom, the conversation invites a gentler view of being human. Sometimes, becoming less miserable is not about adding more joy, but releasing the subtle resistance to what already is.
