“If you cry over a nickel, you’ll die for a dime.”
Most of what drains our joy isn’t the big tragedies—it’s the small, everyday irritations we refuse to let go of. In this episode of This Awkward Life, we talk about perspective, emotional weight, and how allowing little things to live rent-free in our minds can slowly steal our peace. From misunderstood comments to minor frustrations, this episode is a reminder that not everything deserves a reaction—and some things are better dropped than carried.
If you’ve been feeling worn down but can’t quite explain why, this conversation might help you lighten the load and save your strength for what truly matters.
