Hello and welcome to episode 314 of The Mindful Kind podcast.  In this episode, you'll discover why it can be important to practice giving people the benefit of the doubt (including some interesting research about happiness!).  You'll also hear some of my favourite reasons for giving people the benefit of the doubt, including: - It helps me feel less stressed - I feel more compassionate and optimistic  - It's taught me to forgive myself more for my own mistakes Please note that it's not necessarily always a good idea to give people the benefit of the doubt! Make sure you tune into the episode to find out why.  Don't forget to visit www.rachaelkable.com/podcast/314 to download your free copy of my guide, Appreciate And Reflect On The Year That's Gone By.  Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
