Why positive psychology is making us more depressed.

Listen Later

One of my burning topics right now.

I get so many clients coming to me with shame.  A shame that they don't feel like they are 'winning at life' and guilt because in spite of having read books, gone on courses, they still haven't got to where they want to be.

In this episode:

  • What trying to lie to ourselves does.
  • What happens when we move away from our feelings.
  • What the fuck-it bucket is.
  • Why "just snap out of it" is one of the worst things you can say to someone with depression.
  • The problem with the trend in gratitudes and how to make them work and maximise their benefit.
  • How I get to my goals, the one mindset I choose to work with.

    • I like people to leave with positive action steps and not a fluffy 'dream it and you'll do it' mentality.  It doesn't work.

    I just LOVE to help people in a way that works, if you have a topic you would like me to do an episode on then please get in touch.
