About this Episode
We can be so fixed on a job, a person, an outcome that we fuse our identity to it – and, crucially, forget that we’re okay without it. In today’s bonus episode, we unpack detachment: why we cling so tightly to people and outcomes, what over-attachment does to our mind and mood, and how to loosen the grip in a way that feels calm, kind, and clear.
We explore:
• Why we become attached to certain people or outcomes
• The impact of becoming overly attached on our behaviours, thoughts and emotions
• The Buddhist concept of ‘non-attachment’
• How detaching from the outcome can keep us grounded
• The value of the Stoic mindset
