The Life-Changing Power of the Spotlight Effect


Listen Later

In 2022, after making a rash emotional decision to pause my book process, I got a piece of advice from a mentor that changed my life: Nobody cares.

Here's the truth: You aren't afraid of failure. You're afraid of what other people will think of you if you fail.


The Spotlight Effect is a psychological phenomenon whereby we overestimate the degree to which other people are noticing or observing our appearance, actions, behaviors, or results. Nobody cares. So, go do the damn thing.

My book has sold over 200,000 copies around the world in under two months.
It has a "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" offer on the hardcover right now.
If you've been wanting a copy (or are looking to gift copies to friends), now’s a great time to get it.
