This brand new episode has Erin and Rachel discussing our perspectives of situations. Our perspective, when something bad happens to us, can be that of negativity or blame. But when we flip the script and try to find the good in the situation we can have a more positive perspective.
Erin says that a person’s perspective may be a learned behavior. That as we grow up, we learn from others around us on how to respond to situations and that those responses become conditioned.
Rachel likes to think that situations are happening for her, not to her. She noticed, in the past, when she thought things were happening to her that someone else was always to blame. It was never her fault. She came to realize that she was the common denominator in those situations, so she shifted her perspective to one of growth and positivity.
In the end, the girls agree that we need to be self-aware when it comes to perspectives. We need to look at the situation, respond appropriately, use it as empowerment, and reflect on the past for growth.
