E32. You're Not Stuck, Your Brain Just Thinks You're Going to Die
Your brain is not wired to tell you the truth. It's wired to reduce uncertainty.
In this episode, I break down how the brain functions as a prediction machine, constantly scanning for threat and trying to control outcomes - and how that process shapes your behaviour, your habits, and even the more subtle elements of your life.
We also get into what happens when your brain jumps to worst-case scenarios, and why you’re likely underestimating your ability to handle whatever comes next.
