Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement
Questions to Build a Life of Substance & Let Go of What is Holding You Back - w/ Jodi Wellman
17 Oct 2025
Build a mindset that doesn't care what other people think, because you know what actually matters to you. In this episode we examine insightful ways to take control of your life and define where it's going. We steal some of the best questions and ideas from existential psychology that you can try applying to your own life. What is a life worth living? Healthy vs toxic aspirations? How to abandon what doesn't serve you? The illusion of self-importance? GUEST Jodi Wellman is the author of "You Only Die Once" and a source of positive ideas from her work in Applied Positive Psychology. Jodi has a morbid fascination with existential psychology and how contemplating death can help us truly live. As they say "Get busy living, or get busy dying".
