Stubbornness is often seen as a negative trait. If someone calls you stubborn, chances are they’re not giving you a compliment.

In this episode we discuss the general characteristics of stubborn people and how much we resonate with them.  Join the conversation on Instagram: @thelonlychildren  New episodes every Wednesday!
