Episode description

In this one we're getting curious about gossip. Why we do it and how to stop. Gossip can definitely stroke our fragile human egos. It can make us feel important or superior or like the gate keeper of valuable information. But we know those eco-centric feelings are fleeting and that we'd ultimately be much better happier if our conversations were more positive and productive. Here I give several strategies for curbing that pesky gossiping habit + how to limit your exposure to those afflicted with the gossip bug or discreetly redirect those convos to more positive things.
