    Does everyone hate me?

    Moving from "does everyone hate me?" to "how do I feel about my life / myself".  Hillary reflects living through the lense of others for a lot of her life, and how she softened into embodying and believing some of the following statements: - "I am not who I think I am, I am not who you think I am, I am who I THINK you think I am" - "What people think of me is none of my business" - "If you're trying to please everyone, you will end up pleasing no one" (and Hillary would add: "especially not yourself!"

    Why soften?

    To "soften" is obviously a well-known adjective, but we're using it a bit more metaphorically here and it can take on very different shapes for different people. Hillary builds on the last episode's description of some examples of what softening IS and addresses: why even do this work?  Why soften in a world that tells us to go harder?  Why soften when we're trying to achieve and grow?  It may sound counter-intuitive, so join as Hillary walks through her own experience of why softening work has been so impactful. Books on happiness and stress impact research for more solid facts and figures: You, Happier, Daniel G.
