Struggling With Emotions, And Help From The Stoics || Cie

Real stories, told by real people.Today's GIANTS AMONGST US is with Cie, from the Philippines. And she's got a story to tell. Throughout childhood, her parents were absent. They worked long works in order to make ends it for her family. Growing up Cie talks being at home mostly, she's an introvert - "we were at home most of the time when we were kids. So maybe that's why we're introverts, because we prefer being alone rather than being with other people."Cie talks about emotional intelligence, and the lack of it earlier on in her life. Did the absence of both her parents during those key childhood years, play any role in it? What's more important, financial or emotional support? Cie shares her thoughts with us and also how Stoicism helped her at one of the lowest points in her life. She's taken back control of her life, and emotions and I'd like to welcome her as one of the GIANTS AMONGST US.After listening to this episode, I'd like to challenge you all. Just give it a week, one week, of not picking up your phone first thing in the morning to check emails, messages or getting online to tango with any of your social medias. Stay away from it for the first hour, and instead pay yourself. Take a walk, meditate, journal, sit outside and get some air. Do something for you, that give you joy, a peace of mind, or puts a smile on your face, outside the 'inter-webs'. And, see what that does for you. It's just a week. How addicted are we? I'm game and already started. _____Connect with Cie :Spotify : https://open.spotify.com/show/....7DkPbXhV1dbePcU7Ekhs Podcast ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/....podcast/what-to-say/ Share Your Story : giantsamongstus@tutanota.comShow Support : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/G....iantsamongstusSticke & Other Accessories : https://www.redbubble.com/peop....le/QuotestoChew/shop on Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/gian....tsamongstus/_____Bac music by : @bnoizemusic_____
