Understanding How We Treat Others: Lessons from William A. Lofquist

Everyone has something that they're great at or holds some wisdom or knowledge that I'm not aware of.
Ever wondered how your attitude towards others impacts your mental health journey? In this episode, Survival Nick takes a deep dive into the nuances of human interaction, drawing inspiration from William A. Lofquist's spectrum of attitude. Nick breaks down Lofquist's three categories: treating people as objects, recipients, and resources. He asks some tough questions—when is it ever okay to see someone as an object? How can we honor someone's autonomy while seeing them as a recipient?
And what benefits arise when we view others as valuable resources? Nick doesn't just skim the surface; he digs into real-life scenarios, offering practical advice and thought-provoking insights. His reflections are grounded in his own experiences with mental health and addiction recovery, making his observations both relatable and deeply personal. Whether you're navigating your own recovery or supporting someone else on their journey, this episode offers a fresh perspective on the importance of how we treat those around us.
Tune in to hear Nick's candid thoughts and gain actionable tips that can make a real difference in your relationships and mental well-being. This isn't just another podcast episode—it's a guide to becoming more mindful, respectful, and supportive in your interactions with others.
