Selfish vs Self-Interest

Today we are discussing the difference between selfishness and self-interest. These two terms are commonly used in the same breath however they have a totally different meaning. There are times when people will call you selfish based on you taking a genuine interest in yourself and your wellbeing. During this conversation we make clear distinctions between being selfish and being self-interested and how knowing the difference can free you from the guilt of choosing yourself. We discuss the difficulty with black families having issues with the word “no” and how boundaries can be blurry for such a long time. Sometimes you will lose people based on taking your own self-interest into account. No relationship should not be more important to you than your relationship with yourself.
