Ep 54: The Gifts of Pessimism

As the eternal optimist in my relationship, I've found myself becoming frustrated and even ending up in tears more times than I'd like to admit, due to my overestimation of my abilities and underestimation of challenges. My optimism, while usually a positive trait, has sometimes misguided me, leading me to realize that there is indeed a place and a purpose for pessimism.

This episode takes a deep dive into the often overlooked gifts of pessimism and discusses how it can offer a unique perspective, especially for those of us who tend to lean more towards optimism. The aim is to dispel the stigma around pessimism and appreciate it as a tool for realistic foresight.

This Episode is For You If: 

• You're a pessimist and you think they should change
• You think there's something wrong with you
• You wish to explore the balance between optimism and pessimism
• You want to understand how to honor and not shame traits in others
