“I don’t care” (and you’re not bad for saying that)
Friday, 13 February, 2026

What if not caring is actually healthy?In this episode I explore the difference between caring (attention, effort, emotional labour) and blessing (love from afar, well-wishing, release). If you’re a sensitive, perfectionistic, empathetic type who ends up feeling on behalf of other people, this is an invitation to draw a clearer boundary around your ‘kingdom’ - to reclaim that which is yours (and shed that which isn’t), with dignity.Try it today. Say you don’t care, if you find yourself caught up in someone else’s drama, or taking responsibility for their reactions. What comes up for you? Judgement, shame… or relief. This is a public episode.
