Ep. 529: Cutting Back on Cussing, Easier Traveling & Do Possessions Have Feelings?

Ep. 529: Cutting Back on Cussing, Easier Traveling & Do Possessions Have Feelings?

We explore the surprising benefits of swearing—from pain tolerance to social bonding—while also discussing why cutting back on cussing might still improve conversation quality and emotional climate. We share a listener hack for making a long, frequent car trip easier. We also consider a Know-Yourself- Better question about possessions, and we tackle a poignant listener question about maintaining family connections with adult children who seem to be creating unexpected distance after marriage.
