I'm talking about something we're rarely allowed to admit: I don't care about everything anymore, and choosing that has made me healthier.

We've been taught that being a "good person" means emotionally absorbing every crisis, headline, and injustice. The result is empathy fatigue, chronic stress, and nervous systems that never get a chance to reset.

I unpack why carrying the emotional weight of the world isn't empathy, it's ego. Why caring beyond your ability to act is psychologically irrational. How doomscrolling and outrage culture are draining our mental and physical health. And why boundaries are a form of humility, not apathy.

We also explore what real nervous system regulation looks like beyond meditation: sleep, blood sugar balance, relationships, attention hygiene, and building a life your body can relax inside.

If you're exhausted by the news cycle, overwhelmed by social media, or craving more peace and clarity, this episode is for you.
