Why no one understands their fears

Our genuine fears are hidden to us behind elaborate stories. To truly understand ourselves we need a lot of vulnerability, honesty, and curiosity to search within and examine our emotions. Tracy Litt is a spiritual advisor and mindset coach who is an expert on fear and the stories we tell ourselves. Her no-nonsense approach is full of legit good advice to help people sort their sh*t out. On the growth mindset with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, and purpose. Why they can be hard to find and how to build them through a process of self-reflection combined with an honest assessment of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create. - - - Connect with Tracy - Website - https://thelittfactor.com/ - Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-how-of-within/id1533276485 - - - Connect with Sam 🧘‍♀️ Newsletter: https://explosivethinking.substack.com/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/samjamharris 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samjam.zen/ - - - Stay up to date: 🤓🤓🤓 💡 Podsite: https://www.growthmindsetpodcast.com/ GOAT Books to read (that changed my life) 📚📚🐐 🏃‍♀️ Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/3O1F5MC 🧠 Mindset, psychology of success: https://amzn.to/42nYDzj 💰 Psychology of Money: https://amzn.to/3nNnXzs Hot Gear (that makes life bearable) ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 🎙️ Shure MV7 Mic: https://amzn.to/42ufZdJ 🐭 Ergonomic Editing Mouse: https://amzn.to/42sdRTO 🦍 Joby GorillaPod: https://amzn.to/42nvx32 🦅 DJI Mini 3 drone: https://amzn.to/3pnBQEV Affiliate links - Perhaps my mum stops pressuring me to get a job... 🤷‍♀️ - - - 00:00 Intro 02:22 Judgement journal 03:17 Learning to be less controlling 06:00 How to start a transformation 10:40 Get comfortable feeling all of your feeling 12:46 Do you struggle with emotion? 13:59 Emotional distractions 16:09 The problem without getting angry 17:23 Screaming as therapy 18:00 Learning to embrace your voice 20:07 What should you fear? 26:35 Coaching others and finding coaches 30:05 Outro Topics Positive psychology Life Coaching Cognitive behavioral therapy Open humility Living with purpose Stoicism Long-term thinking Building healthy habits Habit formation Fixing anxiety Find your purpose Power of now Liberation from desire Capitalism and consumerism Societal norms Happiness in simplicity Dealing with Overwhelm Prioritizing commitments Growth mindset Psychology of Success Peak performance and Resilience Human potential Embracing failure Mental toughness Vipassana meditation Self-improvement Personal development Success Strategies Motivation and inspiration Goal setting and achievement Overcoming challenges Positive affirmations Visualization techniques Continuous learning Self-awareness and self-discovery Positive mindset Emotional intelligence Perseverance and determination Transformative life journeys Achieving greatness Harnessing inner strength Learn more about your ad choices.
