Who are you VS. Who do you want to be?
It could also be stated - What do you want to do now VS. What do you want to have done?
In both cases, the reality of how we act in the present moment can often be very different than all the desires of who we want to be and what we want to achieve in the future.
In this episode, we break down the Psychology of the Behaviour model that drives our actions. We learn how to close the gap between our desires and our actions to achieve our own version of success and happiness.

National Geographic Adventurer of the Year uncovers how to culture a mindset for adventure without breaking the bank.
Alastair Humphreys is the author of my all-time favourite books on the topic of adventure and getting more out of life.
He spent 4 years cycling around the world, and has rowed the Atlantic, ran the Marathon de Sables, and walked across India amongst numerous other adventures.
Perhaps his greatest success, however, is pioneering the concept of micro-adventures, encouraging anyone to experience the outdoors and thrillseeking within an hour of their doorstep.

The pillars of a happy life lead to increased satisfaction instead of having opposing priorities fight it out.
By treating work and life as opposing forces we inevitably end up tipping the scales the wrong way. We can't always subscribe time evenly and things get out of whack.
We find there is a much better way by examining the term itself 'Work-life balance".
This episode will not only help you find better harmony with your different life projects but also help your awareness and mindsets to the choices you make.

Is society sick? Are we sick? Let's treat our drive to conform as a disorder we can diagnose and fix.
This episode is a hypothetical deep dive where we treat our obedience to social pressure like other personality disorders.
Main topics:
DSM-5 entry for Social Pressure Personality Disorder (SPPD)
2 contrasting case studies
Crossovers with other disorders
How to manage and break out of your social pressure problems
We develop a set of symptomatic criteria, case studies and a treatment plan to get us to live an independent life on our terms.
Anyone wanting to take charge of their life instead of their life living them should listen.
It's also designed to help you think like a psychologist and imagine how a therapist would approach diagnosing and treating such a disorder if it existed.
THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL FORMAT

~11% of men are porn addicts (+3% of women). You know a LOT of porn addicts.
Today's episode discusses:
Why is porn addiction not discussed openly?
Why is it so shameful to talk about?
Why is the problem only getting worse?
How do we create better systems for recovery?
On the show, we have Eric Zusack (Powerful Eric) a porn addiction coach. He spent 20 years in therapy for his own porn addiction. He finally recovered by breaking out of the disease model of addiction and instead taking ownership of his own power.
We discuss the many ways porn is harming society and getting worse and what to do about it.
