S02E02 : Why Japanese People Arrive Early | The Quiet Kindness of Being On Time

In this episode, we explore why punctuality in Japan is often felt not just as seriousness or efficiency, but as a quiet form of care that protects shared space, shared time, and each person’s inner sense of ease. ----------------------------------- 🌱 TODAY'S QUESTION ----------------------------------- When you are kept waiting, and when you are the one who keeps someone waiting, does your body react in different ways?
