What Happens When You Lose Your Sense of Self?: Begin Again Moments

What do you do when you feel like you've lost yourself? In this Begin Again Moments, comedian and actor Tom Davis opens up about his battle with anxiety, sharing how it led him to step away from stand-up comedy for six years. Tom reflects on how, during this period, he lost belief in both himself and his talent, struggling with imposter syndrome and the overwhelming pressure to perform. He discusses the emotional weight of feeling like a fraud, despite outward success, and how these feelings affected his personal and professional life. Following Tom, Professor Steve Peters, renowned psychologist and author of The Chimp Paradox, dives into the science of our emotional responses. He explains how the three parts of the brain, human, chimp, and computer, work together to shape our reactions to the world around us. Professor Peters provides actionable insights on how we can take control of our emotions, challenge negative thought patterns, and reclaim a sense of self, empowering us to face life's challenges with greater confidence and clarity. This episode is a powerful exploration of overcoming self-doubt, managing anxiety, and learning to trust yourself again. Whether you're struggling with mental health, facing self-belief issues, or simply looking for tools to take control of your emotions, this conversation is for you.
