    Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement

    Most self-help advice is guesswork dressed up as wisdom. We dig into psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral science to find what actually changes lives.

    WHY LISTEN?

    Over 8 million downloads because we answer the questions that matter: How do I build mental strength? What creates lasting motivation? How can I understand my own mind well enough to work with it, not against it?

    This podcast is for curious skeptics who want frameworks backed by psychology studies, not Instagram quotes. Whether you’re navigating procrastination, building self-discipline, or designing your own philosophy for a life well lived—we explore the hidden psychology behind real change.

    WHAT YOU’LL GET

    Mental models and simple techniques from cognitive psychology, positive psychology, and ancient wisdom traditions like Stoicism and Buddhism.

    Being a human can be confusing, learning about it doesn’t have to be.

    We cover everything from emotional intelligence and habit formation to brain health and the nervous system.

    WHAT YOU DON’T GET

    No pseudoscience. No oversimplified “hacks.” No hustle porn.

    Just practical insights on mindset improvement, self-development, and human psychology that respect your intelligence and mental health.

    THE APPROACH

    Instead of telling you what to think, we explore how thinking works. Armed with psychology studies, social science research, and relentless curiosity, we uncover the mechanics of belief change, attitude change, and personal development.

    Success is personal. You might want to leverage your neurodiverse strengths, build a business, or simply discover how to be happier. We provide the mental frameworks to pursue your definition of success with mental strength and self-care that fits your life.

    YOUR HOST

    I’m Sam Webster Harris—a lifelong learner with ADHD and an obsession with finding answers to hard questions. After launching businesses, traveling the world, and nearly dying a few times, I concluded that psychology and science are where real wisdom lives.

    This show is my excuse to dive deep into health and fitness research, behavioral psychology, and cool science while helping you build genuine self-discipline and motivation.

    188: Evolutionary Psychology versus Meditation Oct 12, 2021
    Show notes

    Why Buddhism is True written by Robert Wright 'Why Buddhism is True' looks at the science and philosophy of meditation and enlightenment.


    Robert Wright is a devout non-meditating anger prone evolutionary psychologist and writer. He dives headlong into the world of meditation with surprising results, and explain why it works from an evolutionary standpoint.


    Robert Wright famously explained in The Moral Animal how evolution shaped the human brain. The mind is designed to often delude us, he argued, about ourselves and about the world. And it is designed to make happiness hard to sustain. But if we know our minds are rigged for anxiety, depression, anger, and greed, what do we do?


    Wright locates the answer in Buddhism, which figured out thousands of years ago what scientists are only discovering now. Buddhism holds that human suffering is a result of not seeing the world clearly—and proposes that seeing the world more clearly, through meditation, will make us better, happier people.


    In Why Buddhism is True, Wright leads readers on a journey through psychology, philosophy, and a great many silent retreats to show how and why meditation can serve as the foundation for a spiritual life in a secular age. With bracing honesty and fierce wisdom, it will persuade you not just that Buddhism is true—which is to say, a way out of our delusion—but that it can ultimately save us from ourselves, as individuals and as a species.

    187: Entrepreneurial Mindset - Nick Bradley, Scale Up Your Business Podcast Host Oct 05, 2021
    Show notes

    In this episode, Nick Bradley, host of Scale Up Your Business podcast, the number one UK business podcast on iTunes, talks with Sam about their viewpoints of having a growth mindset in the world of entrepreneurship.


    KEY TAKEAWAYS Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Acquisitions is not just acquiring products, customers and other things but you can also acquire talent. Most of what we achieve or don’t achieve is connected to our view of ourselves and our identity. You're the sole responsible for your success. You're also the sole responsible for your failure.

    186: Conversation with a Hitman - Sam Harris Sep 28, 2021
    Show notes

    This is the conversation I had with a hitman living in India about his life. We discuss the story of how he came to be a hitman and what his life is really like. It is certainly very different to what you see in the movies and be prepared for some big insights.


    After the interview, we break down what happened and also discuss things like how I manage to get these interviews and other events in my life like staying with a bunch of drug dealers on the border of Mexico.


    Thanks to Andreas for providing the voice of the Hitman on the podcast and our discussion afterward. And for traveling around the world with me for a year
