EP254: Why Your Personality Isn't Permanent with Ben Hardy

In this powerful episode of The Fit2Fat2Fit Experience, Drew sits down with Dr. Ben Hardy to discuss his book “Personality Isn’t Permanent” and how awareness of identity can radically change your life. They discuss objectively viewing  your personality as something that is constantly changing—especially when you are in a mindset of growth—and how to use this to define and shape your future self. They also discuss past experiences of trauma and how the past must be viewed as something that happened for you, not something that defines you, in order to grow past where you are in the present. HIGHLIGHTS:   [11:25] Key things you can do to change your environment in order to achieve your goals.   [21:30] Ben discusses how trauma shapes personality, his chaotic childhood, and how to deal with unresolved trauma.   [28:35] Ben breaks down common myths about personality and offers alternative ways to view personality in order to facilitate personal growth.    [34:35] Ben and Drew talk about the bad science behind personality tests and how they can ultimately cause much more harm than good to your own personal growth or the growth of a business.   [40:26] The most effective and science-based ways to make radical changes in your life.   SPONSORS:   Keto School Program — Get access to all of Drew’s keto content in one convenient location.
