Episode 277: The Problem with Other People’s Opinions

We all share this world with each other. And we all have separate brains that are individually assessing and interpreting that experience for only ourselves. That means that in any given circumstance or situation or experience, lots of different brains are going to have lots of different opinions about it. The problem is that many times other people’s opinions can feel dangerous. Because even though we can’t control other people’s opinions, it often feels like their opinions have the potential to have a big impact on our safety and happiness.  On today’s episode of the podcast, I’m giving you a new way to think about the opinions of other people. I’ll show you why those opinions often feel so threatening and how to release your fear and your need to control other people’s opinions so that you can feel more peace in any situation.  Other people’s opinions are a big part of the human experience, but today I want to show you that your own opinion (which is the only one that you can control, by the way) is the only one that really matters.  **Looking for tickets to HOPE DAY?
