Last week you might remember I promised you part two of mental health choices in 2023. I am delaying that for a couple of weeks for something more pressing. I had a health related issue this week that escalated so fast, and it smacked me in the face with this concept of being stubborn. In fact, it was my husband who used to the word, and now I have to self-reflect – ugh 😊 What does it mean to be stubborn? Cambridge dictionary defines says: A stubborn person is determined to do what he or she wants and refuses to do anything elseIs it always bad? No, but usually when we use the word it's not great. Today let's look at what it is, how it's holding you back, and how to address it. Show notes at https://www.tamiwest.com/post/stubbornness.
