The duo also highlights how self-compassion and letting go of negative self-talk can pave the way for a healthier, more balanced life.
As David says, 'Just not taking anything personally means that it's about them, not about you', a perspective that can significantly shift how you navigate your recovery. Tune in to learn how this simple yet powerful agreement can help you reclaim control over your emotions and actions.
