Rewriting Your Inner Script: Limiting Beliefs, Eustress & Resilience for High Performers with Dr. Albert Bramante

On Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Albert Bramante—veteran talent agent, PhD in psychology, certified hypnotist, and NLP practitioner—to break down how the story you tell yourself shapes mental health and performance. From limiting beliefs and the inner critic to practical mindset tools like reframing, hypnosis, and NLP, Albert explains how identity shifts fuel results for actors, CEOs, and high achievers alike. You’ll learn the difference between healthy challenge (eustress) and toxic stress, how to spot early warning signs, and how to build daily systems that drive sustainable success without burnout. Direct, actionable, and grounded—this conversation helps you rewrite your inner narrative so you can perform with authenticity and balance.

About the guest :

Dr. Albert Bramante is a long-time talent agent with 20+ years in TV, film, and theater. He also holds a PhD in psychology, is a certified hypnotist, and an NLP practitioner. He helps actors and high-performing professionals dismantle self-sabotage, shift identity, and perform with confidence.

Key takeaways:

• Your self-story drives outcomes: Internal narratives formed in childhood (criticism vs. celebration) shape beliefs, identity, and mental health.

• Identity shift > willpower: Recast yourself as a survivor, not a victim to unlock resilient behavior and better performance.

• Reframing works: Tools from hypnosis/NLP help reframe events, reduce the inner critic, and enable authentic delivery in high-stakes moments (e.g., auditions, boardrooms).

• Eustress vs. distress:Eustress (a focused, time-bound arousal) boosts performance; toxic stress lingers and disrupts sleep, breathing, and eating patterns.

• Spot stress early: Persistent hypervigilance, irregular sleep, and appetite shifts are cautions that coping systems need attention.

• Action builds confidence: Consistent, small steps with feedback loops (“fail forward”) develop durable competence and calm.

• Balance prevents burnout: Maintain outside interests and supportive routines to counter high-judgment environments.

• Mind–body is one system: Mental stress elevates cortisol, impacting the body; physical and mental practices (mindfulness, movement, breathwork) should work together.

• Translate strengths across domains: Map your existing professional gravitas to new performance contexts to accelerate wins.

• Make it practical: Label emotions, reframe limits, set growth-mindset systems, and review results weekly.
