February 10, 2021 Psyched With Dr. D: The Psychology Behind Our Own Conceptions of Vaccines, Conspiracies, Free Market Society and Government Regulations
Everybody's entitled to their own opinion. Obviously there's some of us in here do not believe in conspiracy theory and others believe in it. So I think you know, everybody's entitled to I believe in aliens. Do you really believe in aliens? Are you serious? Like my Yes. 100% they built the goddamn pyramids? Do you think people actually built the damn pyramids? Do you think human beings picked up like 40,000 pound stones and stack them in a perfect trial? It's insane. Oh, my mom's talking and Maddie Maddie on the pyramids, they have pictures right? helicopters, submarines, everything UFOs that and that's, that's legit. Like that is legit. You go there, and you can see it. And you can see the sun god and all these things. And when you look at this stuff, it's like, I don't believe with the universe as big as it is that we are here alone. No way. I agree. It is too big. We are literally like a grain of salt smaller than a grain of salt in the universe. And me and hey, I sometimes will put on you know, shows that talk about the universe. And you know, Neil deGrasse Tyson goes through it all. I get scared. I'm like, I want to shut the shut off. I don't want to think about this. You know, like, I don't want to know that I might get probed in 10 years like I'm good. You know, even the History Channel, ancient aliens. Yep. Ancient Aliens is a great one. And even like, well, it's funny, like Bob lazaar. And that whole thing, right? He was considered a conspiracy theorist for many, many years. And then finally this year, the government came out and they were like, Yeah, it's true. Like we have a lot of the technology that he's talking about and totally, like, vindicated him and all that and like for years, they made his life, absolute hell and pin him as a conspiracy theorist, but 100% as big as the universe is, there's no way we're the only ones. So I have a question for Dr. D, though, from a psychological perspective. Why do some of us believe in conspiracy theories? Is it something that we kind of try to latch on to for a moment of truth or is it

Learning how to communicate, when you can't speak the same language, how to still get your point across is so helpful. When I came back to the states and started coaching again, just that level of confidence of like, hey, if I can coach someone that doesn't speak my language, how to move better, how to have a right attitude in a workout, how to live a healthy lifestyle, it brought a huge amount of confidence back over and I feel like I grown. Yeah, you know, 10 x times making communication harder, almost made communicating easier.

They are very communal, and they live so closely with one another of like, what they provide, like the trading and the skills and how they can help each other out. It's just so well connected. That was like an enlightening experience. I'm sure lockup It was also that ability to connect with other people is always like such a great measure of health. And I think that community aspect is so important, like looking at how happy they were having like so little.

We went through the level one cert together did our internship right around the same time learning from some of the best fitness coaches in the CrossFit industry. At that time. I didn't jump into coaching classes as quickly as Brad did. I worked more on the operation side of the gym, social media retail, which is where I got the connections to come to Kuwait working for circuit plus. and recruiting for Kuwait isn't easy. A lot of people know this, but I tapped into my network. And, Brad, do you remember the timeline of you coming out? Because I just remember being like, yeah, you should come travel the world. Yalla. And then you were there
