How Do You Finally Face What You've Been Avoiding?

from The Stoic Compass

In this episode, Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi examine why we avoid facing difficult truths and what actually happens when we finally stop. You'll learn that avoidance isn't weakness or confusion—it's a bargain we're making to protect a version of ourselves we're not ready to lose, and that the moment of facing requires only thirty seconds of honest looking, not years of preparation. By the end, you'll understand what's really blocking you and have a concrete practice to begin breaking through tonight.📖 Pay Attention by C.
