Scott Barry Kaufman & Jordyn Feingold: Choosing Growth on The One You Feed

There is something within me, and I think within everyone, that when you can quiet everything else around you, you can quiet the social media, you can quiet all the influences of other people on you and you get in touch with something that is so uniquely you: a unique creative potential that makes you feel alive.
Ever feel stuck in a rut of 'shoulds' and expectations? Eric Zimmer invites cognitive scientist Scott Barry Kaufman and psychiatrist Jordyn Feingold to share their wisdom on breaking free from these constraints. Scott, a professor at Columbia University, and Jordyn, a resident physician at Mount Sinai, co-authored *Choose Growth: A Workbook for Transcending Trauma, Fear, and Self-Doubt*. They dive into the nitty-gritty of realizing your potential and using a unique sailboat metaphor to steer your personal growth journey.
Their conversation touches on the importance of self-focus in achieving transcendence and how embracing negativity can actually be a stepping stone to growth. They also discuss the emerging field of positive medicine and how it can make transcendence more accessible. This episode is packed with practical exercises to help you find purpose and empathy even in tough times. Tune in for an engaging chat that offers actionable steps to nurture your 'good wolf' and thrive.
