Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement

Why no one understands their fears


Listen Later

Our genuine fears are hidden to us behind elaborate stories. To truly understand ourselves we need a lot of vulnerability, honesty, and curiosity to search within and examine our emotions.


Tracy Litt is a spiritual advisor and mindset coach who is an expert on fear and the stories we tell ourselves. Her no-nonsense approach is full of legit good advice to help people sort their sh*t out.


On the growth mindset with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, and purpose. Why they can be hard to find and how to build them through a process of self-reflection combined with an honest assessment of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create.
