How do you deal with people who drain your energy?

from The Stoic Compass

Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi debate whether energy-draining relationships are a problem of choice, psychology, or simple acceptance—and what to actually do about them. You'll learn why you stay in these relationships despite knowing the cost, what your resistance to leaving reveals about you, and how to set limits without needing to understand everything first. The episode ends with one concrete move you can make today.📖 Pay Attention by C.
