And now let’s jump into episode 1872 of The School of Greatness!

Some Questions I Ask:

• Is the biggest reason that people are struggling in their relationships, in their work relationships, romantic relationships, friendships, having to do with the person they’re in the relationship with, or the wound they haven’t healed within themself yet?
• How does someone create that artificially without having, you know, a war or some pandemic? How do you create that to see if you’re with the right person?
• What is one psychological way to manage our mind to overcome burnout in life?
• What’s the best way you’ve studied or seen people do and how they can break their mind from thinking about work once they’re away from work?
• Why do you think people lose so much of their joy? Is it tied to work stress or pressures of life or societal things?
• How does someone convert rumination into something that can be solved?
• Why is it so hard for people to start a relationship and tell the person they’re into just getting a start in a relationship, that they’re actually interested in them, that what their intentions are, that they like them, that they want to create more with them?
• If two people get into a relationship who have unresolved wounds or traumas, and you could give them a game plan on how to have a healthy, long-term relationship, what would be the actions they would both need to take to start healing those wounds, assessing them, integrating the healing journey?

In this episode, you will learn:

• Break free from rumination that keeps you stuck in fight-or-flight mode hours after work by converting your emotional spiral into a solvable problem with a simple three-step process
• Uncover the shocking truth about why relaxation is only 50 percent of what you need to recover from burnout, and what recharging activities will actually fill your battery
• Discover why your unhealed wounds are making you choose unhealthy relationships at work and home, and the exact moment you need to look in the mirror instead of blaming others
• Transform how you think about stress by understanding that your job isn’t stressful all the time, it has stressful moments, and this one reframe can dramatically lower your cortisol levels
• Master the psychological ritual that trains your brain to detach from work mode, using all five senses to create a transition your nervous system will recognize instantly
• Plus much more…
