The Gently Used Human with Dr. Scott Lyons

Finding Meaning in the Mess with Neeta Bhushan


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself stuck in the quicksand of life's challenges, where every effort to move seems to pull you deeper into struggle? Or perhaps found yourself caught in a cycle of overachievement and overdoing, only to realize it's a shield against unprocessed trauma? This dance of resilience, this balancing act between breaking and rebuilding, just may be where we find our truest strength.

In this episode, Dr. Scott is joined by Dr. Neeta Bhushan, a former cosmetic dentist turned resilience expert and advocate for human connection. Author of the critically acclaimed book, That Sucked, Now What? and Founder of the Global Grit Institute and the Dharma Coaching Institute. Her work has received international recognition, being featured in Forbes, LA Weekly and more, inspiring countless individuals to turn their struggles into opportunities for growth. 

Prepare to be inspired, challenged, and transformed as we unravel the art of turning life’s most sucky moments into stepping stones for growth and self-realization. 

Topics We Break Down:

  • What the fuck resilience actually is. 
  • What it truly means to be able to sit in discomfort and ‘the stuck’. 
  • Navigating over-achievement and resilience.
  • Why it’s so dangerous to carry unprocessed emotions and how they manifest in our health. 
  • What is behind the tendency to attract people who trigger what we refuse to face. 
  • Returning to your own divinity through spiritual and somatic therapies.
  • Learning to ask for support and finding value beyond caretaking and hyperfunction.
