In this episode of Rameumptom Ruminations, we explore the emotional complexity of hearing others express beliefs we once held, especially when used to explain away difficult aspects of LDS doctrine. Through the lens of Buddhist compassion and Stoic self-mastery, we reflect on how to approach these conversations with empathy rather than argument. By letting go of the need to change others and focusing on presence and connection, we find a more peaceful way to navigate faith transitions. Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to engage with others—and themselves—with grace, patience, and humility.
