In this episode dedicated to The Let Them Theory, we explore why the concept of unfairness triggers such a strong reaction in us, activating our brain's threat detection system. We'll unpack how holding onto resentment can keep you stuck and feeling powerless. However, we'll also introduce the powerful "let them plus let me" framework, a practical tool to accept what you can't control and empower yourself to focus on what you can. Learn how to apply this framework in various relationships – work, friendships, and family – to set boundaries and advocate for yourself. Discover exercises like the "equity audit" and the "resentment to action" exercise to turn feelings of unfairness into positive change and ensure you are honoring your own needs.
