Gabor Maté, an 80-year-old Canadian physician and author, reflected on his life during the Feel Better Live More podcast, offering profound wisdom. Inspired by the bittersweet ending of Winnie the Pooh, he shared how the pressures to prove his worth led him to sacrifice joy and playfulness. Maté noted, “What matters is play, joy, and connection,” urging us to preserve our “Enchanted Forest” of play throughout life.
This poignant reminder emphasizes the importance of prioritizing relationships and self-discovery over relentless work. Let’s strive to nurture joy and meaningful connections in our lives—what truly matters most.
