Today, we're exploring the single most important skill we will ever teach on this podcast: How to change the brain in lasting ways.
The dirty secret of the personal growth industry, and self-help and psychology more broadly, is that most of what we learn doesn't stick. So, what can we do to achieve the ‘holy grail’ of personal growth – lasting change in our hearts, minds, and behaviors?
