    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.

    Learned Helplessness and Learned Optimism - Unleash Awesomeness Aug 08, 2017
    Show notes

    The story of the growth mindset is rooted in our understanding of learned helplessness and learned optimism.


    Our tendency to learn to accept a situation and give up on changing it is the root of a fixed mindset. Our ability to behave optimistically and learn to seek new solutions to recurring problems is the root of a Growth mindset.

    The concept of a Growth Mindset was developed by Carol Dweck expanding on the previous work of Martin Seligman to create a deeper understanding of success and achievement.


    In this episode, we dive into the work that helped lay the ground for the true self-improvement movement from a psychological perspective and set the foundations of understanding for the podcast.
