134 - Addicted to Certainty
In this episode, I am going to talk about something that I think a lot of us struggle with: addiction to certainty. I wiilll dive into the difference between certainty and agency, and some personal reflections on why taking risks can be so important for growth.
To help illustrate this point, I’ll be drawing inspiration from Cheryl Strayed’s incredible book, Wild. We’ll explore how the bias towards certainty can actually hold us back from making positive changes in our lives, and I’ll be challenging you to consider taking some risks and stepping outside of your comfort zone.
So get ready to push yourself a little bit and try some new things! I truly believe that by challenging our addiction to certainty, we can unlock new levels of growth and fulfillment.
