  • When someone disrespects you, what is actually happening?
    2026/04/21
    When someone disrespects you, Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi disagree on what's actually happening—and what you should do about it. This episode untangles the difference between the event itself and your response to it, explores why the same insult wounds you deeply from one person but barely touches you from another, and offers a practical way to stop letting other people's opinions govern your sense of self.
