This week I'm looking at Radical Acceptance, where it comes from, what the word radical actually means, and why letting go of the fight with reality isn't the same as giving up.

Today I'm talking about a phrase that gets said to people all the time, usually by someone who loves them, and it's meant as a criticism even though it's usually evidence that something's gone RIGHT.

This week I'm talking about compulsive lying, and why the picture most of us have of it, someone cold and calculating who's worked out exactly what story gets them what they want, is usually wrong. Most compulsive lying isn't strategic at all. It's automatic, it's fast, and often the person doing it couldn't tell you why they said it either.
