Are You Always Defending Your Perspective?

This week on Ten Minutes to Less Suffering, explore a subtle yet powerful source of stress: the habit of constantly defending your perspective. From workplace decisions to personal relationships, many find themselves drained by the need to be understood, validated, or agreed with. But is it worth the cost to your energy, clarity, and peace? Discover how to recognize the emotional triggers behind this urge, why letting go of the need to be "right" can be transformative, and how choosing stillness over defense can lead to a more authentic, centered life. Thought-provoking and deeply relatable, this episode offers practical insights for anyone ready to reclaim their power—and their peace.
