Episode 4129:
Leo Babauta shares an honest accounting of what it costs socially to live differently from most people, from constant explaining to quiet isolation at the dinner table. He then offers seven strategies for carrying those differences well, including embracing them outright, treating other people's questions as a teaching opportunity, and learning to enjoy one's own company in a crowd. His conclusion is that being different is rarely easy, but it is the foundation of an authentic and intentional life.
