Ep 318 - Dealing With Disappointment
Episode 318
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026

We introverts often carry disappointment as if it proves something about us. I do not believe it does. In this episode I unpack how that belief forms and how it quietly shapes our choices. There is a cycle many of us enter without noticing, where we brace, contract and then confirm our own fears. The real question is not how to avoid disappointment, but how do we stop organising our lives around it. When we loosen that grip, an important shift takes place - we return to choice, to presence, and to a far more grounded way of being.
