Today we are looking at How To Embrace Pain to Avoid Suffering with Brian Bogert.

There are times where you speak to someone and it energises your being and alters your thinking. This is what Brian Bogert brings to the table. There is a sleeping giant in every human. Awakening those giants within and turning them into legends, by helping individuals grab just what’s out of their grasp, is Brian’s purpose in this life. Brian is a heart surgeon without a blade. He does not start outside with what you need to do, he starts inside with who you are. In a world that is disconnected, Brian is revolutionizing how individuals, leaders, and entrepreneurs deeply connect with their authentic selves to achieve the best version of themselves.

In this conversation you will learn about Brian's life philosophies on “how to embrace pain to avoid suffering”.

We will tackle authenticity as a buzz word versus what he calls radical authenticity.

And we will look at the foundational question of this show, 'who are you really?' and is there an answer to this question.

If you are not blown away by this episode I will eat my hat.

Sam Kukathas, is the Owner and Founder of The Philosophical Coach. The Philosophical Coach exists to redefine leadership, communication, performance, mental health, and politics. We test and challenge agreement where it is does not serve society nor you.

Most of us, if not all of us, experience what we have come to call imposter syndrome.

Why do we experience imposter syndrome?

Why is it possible to get to the root cause of an issue and yet still feel stuck?

And is imposter syndrome just tied to some fundamental belief about who you see yourself to be really?

And if so, what would be possible if we could give it up?

These are some of the questions that Michele Molitor – founder and CEO of Nectar Consulting Inc., and co-author of the best-selling book “Breakthrough Healing” – and I explore here.

Michele’s unique Rapid Rewiring approach is a culmination of years of study in the realms of emotional intelligence, neuroscience, organizational psychology and Rapid Transformational Therapy. She helps catalyze shifts in thinking and eliminate mental and emotional blocks to rapidly rewire your brain for greater confidence and success.

Trauma, whether we relate to it this way or not, is something every human experiences. But the significance it has for us, what it looks like, and its impact can not only vary but drastically shape what possibilities we believe we can make real in our lives.

In this episode I share some of what neuroscience and mindfulness have taught me about seeing, thinking, and happiness. The intention is that you will be able to start to experiment with these practices and see what difference they make in how you see yourself, others, and provide you with the tools to shift your overall experience of life from moment to moment.

What readiness potential has to do with the relationship between thoughts and acting, and feeling and performance. 

What default modes of being and acting have to do with how life looks moment to moment.

Confrontation as something to embrace not avoid.

The decisiveness of context in shaping our experience.

The benefit of challenging common views that you can control your thoughts.

A different way of capturing the idea of limiting beliefs and triggers.

Today Jay Shifman and I are peeling back how we understand mental health.

It is Jay’s mission to encourage difficult conversations and honest education concerning these and similar struggles. And since 2015 his company Choose Your Struggle has been working on two distinct goals; ending stigma and ensuring that those who struggle receive the help they deserve.

In this episode we do not hold back, we look at: anxiety, bipolar, the danger of mental health labels, misdiagnoses, suicide, OCD, ADHD.

We look, when it comes to mental health, at the importance of destigmatisation, what we can do differently and where there is a case for optimism, especially in the UK thanks to the ripple effect of the work of companies like Sanctus.

About Host:

In a world where we generally don’t like being told what to do, we rely on algorithms to ironically tell us what to do.

Why?

In part two of the series we dive into our desire for certainty, and why binary thinking tends to fuel more anger, violence, and rage within society across divisive issues from politics, religion, veganism, sexual orientation. And we look at how Real Talk is combating both the tendency to see complex issues in black and white but also the suffering that this is perpetuating.
