The harder we suppress things, the more of a problem it becomes.

So you suppress your stress by just continuing to work.

It's going to cause problems.

You suppress problems for your past.

They're going to continue to show up.

You have PTSD.

You suppress your flashbacks and the cues or, your, your, your, your, the

cues or reminders you get in the environment that remind you of the trauma. And you keep avoiding

those. It's a form of suppression. They pop up now in flashbacks and in, you know, in, you know, in

dreams. OCD. You suppress your, your, your urges to do compulsions or, um, have these obsessions obsessions. And what happens? It gets stronger.

What happens with Tourette's syndrome? You suppress your ticks and they will come out pretty strong

a little bit later. So it's suppression doesn't work. And just like this is why restrictive diets in the long term don't work for most people.

What's up, my friend, and welcome to the legendary life podcast. Today, I have another great

interview for you. I have Dr. Chris Friesen back on the show. For those of you who aren't familiar

with him, he's a psychologist who's always been

fascinated by what makes people successful. Now, he's not just any psychologist. He's a

neuropsychologist. I'm not going to get into detail of what that is, but basically they

specialize in assessing brain function and primarily disorders of the

brain. But he primarily helps professional, national, Olympic, and up-and-coming elite athletes,

as well as other high achievers like entrepreneurs and executives, achieve their personal

and professional potential.

And Chris is someone I consider as a friend.
