Beyond Success

Why Radical Self-Acceptance Is Necessary For Growth


Listen Later

There are two paths to transformation: The Fixing Method and The Acceptance Method. 

The former is what you’ll get from any self-help book or life coaching. And while it might work for a short burst of time, it creates even more mental chaos down the road. 

The latter is the approach IFS therapy uses. And it creates lasting change through radical self-acceptance (even aspects of your personality that humiliate you). 

In this episode, you’ll discover how radical self-acceptance leads to more success with women, a happier life, and a more fulfilling career. 

Listen now. 

Show Highlights Include:

  • The 3-step process for making your inner critic shut up (5:05) 
  • The “Allowing Approach” to self-improvement (without secreting despising aspects of your personality) (6:58) 
  • The counterintuitive way listening to your inner critic helps it go away faster (7:12) 
  • How self-help books actually slows down your journey to self-improvement (7:42) 
  • The weird way saying “hello” to yourself helps you heal from your traumatic past (13:11) 
  • Why self-therapy sabotages the benefits of real therapy before you even begin (20:09) 
  • How having more willpower and discipline backfires and slows your healing process to a grinding halt (27:04)
