Ep 92: Najwa Zebian: The One Who Broke You Can’t Heal You

dimanche 13 septembre 2026 • Durée 50:22

In episode 92 of the podcast, I sit down with author and educator Dr. Najwa Zebian to talk about emotional depth, letting go, and her newest book, The One Who Broke You Can’t Heal You.

We get into being a “hopium addict,” confusing someone’s potential with who they actually are, and what happens when being understanding turns into endlessly accommodating.

If you’ve ever thought, “I understand why you’re like this, but why am I the one paying for it?”....this conversation is for you.

In this episode:

Recognizing someone’s emotional capacity before you’re attached.
What to look for in a partner when you love deeply.
Why their potential can be harder to release than the actual person.
The different bonds that keep you stuck in a relationship.
Moving forward without their apology, explanation, or closure.

Episode 90: The Certainty Trap—Your Brain Wants Certainty, Your Life Requires Uncertainty

jeudi 23 avril 2026 • Durée 29:13

If you’ve ever felt stuck, indecisive, or like you’re waiting for clarity before making a big life decision, this episode is for you!

In this episode, we will cover:

Why you feel stuck: your brain prioritizes certainty over happiness
Predictive processing: your brain runs mostly on internal predictions—not reality
Why you choose what’s familiar (even when it’s wrong for you)
How loss aversion + dopamine keep you looping and overthinking

Nerd Alert: Predictive Brain Mode

Practice What You Podcast:

Manually close the loop: Replace catastrophic thoughts with grounded uncertainty
Uncertainty Exposure Training: Small, controlled risks to retrain your brain
Name the pattern: Identify where you’re choosing familiar over aligned

The 70% Rule: If it’s 70% aligned, take action
Track evidence: Build proof that uncertainty doesn’t equal danger
Flip loss aversion: Ask “What is it costing me to stay the same?”

4 types of unexpected grief that many people experience
How grief can show up as anxiety, numbness, rumination, or emotional flooding

You’ll learn:

What actually helps in the moment when grief suddenly intensifies
Tools to regulate the nervous system during waves of sadness or overwhelm
How to coexist with grief (and even befriend it) instead of trying to outrun it or letting it take over
How to track progress in grief beyond simply “feeling better”
Practical tools that help alongside time…not just “give it time” advice.

Episode 87 - Why Your Brain Loves Bad Habits (and How to Rewire Them for Good)

mardi 30 décembre 2025 • Durée 32:12

In episode 87, we are going over all things habits! Bad habits aren’t a willpower issue — they’re a brain wiring issue. In this episode, we break down why your brain automates patterns that don’t serve you, why trying harder doesn’t work, and how to actually rewire habits using neuroscience (not motivation).

In this episode, we cover:

Why your brain runs so much of your day on autopilot
Where habits actually live in the brain (and why logic can’t stop them)
The 4-step habit loop: cue → craving → response → reward (via James Clears Atomic Habits)
Why you don’t crave the habit — you crave the state change
How stress makes bad habits stronger
How to break habits by changing cues, friction, and rewards
Why identity beats motivation when it comes to lasting change

If you’re stuck in a start-stop cycle, this episode will help you stop blaming yourself and start working with your brain instead of against it.
