This was a fascinating, wide-ranging, amusing and highly useful conversation if you're a human being!

Dr Sophie Mort, known as Dr Soph is a UK Sunday Times best selling author of the book "A Manual For Being Human' and in today's podcast we discuss the topic of her new book 'Unstuck', which is just brilliant.

It's a wide-ranging conversation about habit formation, automations in our life, cognitive biases, drama triangles and much more. I guarantee there's be an enjoyable mix of nods of acknowledgement, laughter and aha moments as you listen to it.

The Power of Life-Changing Anxiety with Dr Kirk Schneider Jun 16, 2023

Show notes

Today was a super-interesting and thought-provoking conversation with Dr Kirk Schneider, a highly experienced Existential-Humanistic Psychologist.

On the face of it, the conversation we had seems counterintuitive. In a world where more and more people are seeking treatment for anxiety, Kirk contends that is not less anxiety that we need today, but more, at least of a certain kind. Kirk calls this life-enhancing anxiety. He says that life-enhancing anxiety is the anxiety we must face to prevent life-destroying anxiety. It is challenging and requires pluck. But it also may just save us from the disastrous path with which we now contend.

This was a spontaneous conversation that went down lots of rabbit-holes and I'd struggle to think that you won't walk away with some useful insights and tools.

You can find out more about Dr Kirk on his website where you can also find links to purchase his wide range of interesting books.
