In this episode of Changing Minds, I dive deep into one of the most powerful psychological frameworks I use in my own life: the anti-fragile mindset.

Instead of simply "bouncing back," I explore how we can bounce back better: stronger, wiser, and more capable, after adversity. I break down six practical ways I turn negative events into growth, strength, motivation, and even future opportunities. I also explain how to become strategically anti-fragile by planning ahead and designing a life that thrives through challenge.

In this episode, I break down one of the most powerful psychological tools I use every single day: the agency mindset. I explore the history behind it, from Stoicism to Buddhism to modern psychology, and share exactly how I apply it in my own life to stay grounded, strong, and resilient.

I walk you through how to separate what you can control, what you can influence, and what you must accept. I also reveal how trust, faith, and future-focused thinking can support you when life feels overwhelming.

If you've ever felt stuck, stressed, or powerless, this episode will help you reclaim your sense of direction and become the hero of your own story.

Tune in and let's explore how to build a high-agency mindset: one decision, one action, one moment at a time.

In this episode of Changing Minds, I speak with Dov Baron, one of the world's top leadership thinkers, to unpack the power of the Emotional Source Code, our emotional DNA that drives every decision we make.

We explore why logic always bends to emotion, the difference between belonging and fitting in, how vulnerability builds trust, and how leaders can create cultures of healthy belonging instead of division.

We also dive into identity, meaning, transformation, and why sometimes you have to let the old you burn to rise as the phoenix.

In this episode of Changing Minds, I speak with Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva, a scientist, author, and global Reinvention expert. We explore the psychology and neuroscience of change, how to overcome fear, and why reinvention is a skill we all need to master.
