Balancing Caring for Others and Maintaining One's Mental Well-being
In this chapter, the hosts discuss the challenge of balancing caring for others and maintaining one's own mental well-being. They reflect on the importance of giving up on the idea of saving or being a hero and instead allowing the world to flow over them, only stepping in when their unique experiences and resources can be of help. They also mention the Daphne Foundation, a community-based grassroots organization they started to support low-income communities in New York City. They explore the concept of de-centering oneself and the idea that surrendering and making a smaller stamp on the world might be more impactful than trying to impose one's version of good everywhere.
