A short spoken reflection advising that protecting mental health comes from accepting others as they are, avoiding attempts to control their actions, and choosing whether to remain involved (setting boundaries and emotional detachment). The speaker frames this as a personal strategy for wellbeing during change.
How have you protected your mental health through all these changes? I think the biggest way that I've learned how to protect my mental health is let humans be humans. I think we put a lot of pressure and control on trying to control somebody do what we want them to do, you know what I'm saying? So for me, I just like, but that's what they want to do. That's cool. I'm like, you know this. I put me in harm's way. I might not like the decision or it might even mess up the business. I'm like, this is what it is. I ain't tripping. So for me, I mental health really stands with like letting people be who they're going to be because then I can decide if I want to be involved in this or not. You know what I'm saying? And that's like my biggest way for my personal mental health.
