Episode 81 – The Psychology of Post Traumatic Growth
In Episode 81, we are diving into Post Traumatic Growth (aka pain as a portal), the Region Beta Trap, and the Neuropsychology of Thriving After Rupture. We’ll break down why hitting rock bottom can be more motivating than staying “fine,” how trauma rewires your brain, and why you need 3-5 positives to outweigh one negative. Plus, we’ll explore the Region Beta Paradox—why tolerable pain keeps you stuck more than real suffering does.____ANNOUNCEMENTS Step into your next level—join us July 30th for High Achievers Night Out (Virtual Edition).
