Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains

What’s up Hardcore Humans! We are wrapping up Season 2 of the Hardcore Humanism Podcast with a special bonus episode where we talk with Jerry Cantrell -- founding member, musician, singer songwriter of the rock band Alice In Chains. In Hardcore Humanism therapy and coaching we want you to apply principles of humanistic psychology to your life so you can find your purpose, work hard to achieve it, and build a community around you who will support your most authentic and purpose-driven life. And what Jerry describes in our conversation is how he has been able to find his purpose in music, work hard towards building his career, and find the community that understood, supported and shared in his vision. He explained how his love of music gave him the determination to face the anxiety of playing live music. And he kept following his purpose no matter where it took him. One of the key goals of humanistic psychology is to help pull back the barriers that people face so that they can self-actualize and lead an authentic, purpose-driven life. And one of the things that Jerry talks about in our conversation is how much of his art can be understood as “pulling back the clutter” to discover the best song. Similarly, in our own lives it is that place where we can work hard without necessarily pushing the process in a specific direction – but rather have faith in the process as we develop and build a purpose-driven life. ***** Hardcore Humanism Weekly Newsletter: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/su/GBmf0iU/HardcoreHumanismSignUp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hardcorehumanism/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HardcoreHumanism/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/hardcorhumanism Learn more about your ad choices.
