from The Mindful Startup · host Hannah Maria Barris
People talking behind your back? Trying to diminish your work, your light, or your reputation? Let them. Because every time they speak negatively about you, they’re not hurting you—they’re hurting themselves.In this fiery and empowering episode, I’m here to remind you: it’s not your job to fix their bitterness, defend your name, or dim your shine to make them comfortable. Their gossip, judgment, and toxicity say everything about them and nothing about you.We’ll talk about:The energetic cost of tearing someone else downWhy gossip is self-inflicted poisonThe difference between momentary jealousy and intentional bullyingHow to protect your power without confrontationWhat to do when it's people close to youThis is your invitation to show up louder, prouder, and brighter than ever—because you were never meant to play small for people who were never going to clap for you anyway.💡 Reminder: Their obsession with you is not your responsibility. Protect your energy, stay focused on your path, and let their self-destruction be their own."Let Them" inspiration from Mel Robbin's new book, "Let Them"!
