In this episode of A Little Zen, A Little Mess, Seema explores something we all do, often without realizing it: deciding who someone is before we really know them.
Someone doesn't reply, and we decide they don't care. Someone seems distant, and we call them cold. Someone doesn't invite us, and suddenly we've written an entire story about why.
But how much of what we believe about people is actually what we know—and how much is simply the story we've created?
Seema explores the difference between judgment and discernment, reminding us that we can choose our people, protect our energy, and walk away from relationships that don't work for us without turning someone's differences into a character flaw.
Because sometimes the person we're judging isn't the person we're actually seeing. We're seeing the story we told ourselves about them.
And perhaps the most generous thing we can do is leave a little room to be wrong.
