Summary

The person you talk to the most in your life, is you. Yet what we often say to ourselves isn't always kind, true or helpful.

Enter today's guest: Lori Gottlieb.

Lori is a psychotherapist and author of the New York Times bestseller 'Maybe You Should Talk to Someone'. In our fast-paced world of independence and individualism, we often minimize the importance of our interdependence to each other.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into:

How to recognize and manage negative self-talk
How to gain perspective on another person's point of view
How to use self-compassion is a tool for motivation and reflection
The power of emotions as a compass in our lives
and much more...

In addition to her clinical practice, Lori writes The Atlantic’s weekly “Dear Therapist” advice column and contributes regularly to The New York Times and many other publications. Her recent TED Talk is one of the top 10 most watched of the year. A member of the Advisory Council for Bring Change to Mind and advisor to the Aspen Institute, she is a sought-after expert in media such as The Today Show, Good Morning America, The CBS This Morning, CNN, and NPR’s “Fresh Air.” Her new iHeart Radio podcast, “Dear Therapists,” produced by Katie Couric, will premier this year.

Enjoy!

0:00.0	Hey everybody, what's up? It's Chase. You know, when you hurt yourself, when you roll an ankle or your body is hurt, it's very obvious and easy in our culture to go to a doctor.
0:18.3	And yet, still to this day, the idea that when our brain or mind or thoughts
0:24.4	are not serving us, that there's somehow some sort of a stigma. I think we're mostly through
0:30.7	that, but there's still maybe a little stigma attached to therapy. Well, we're here to blow that up today because my guest is a
0:40.7	psychotherapist. If you are new to the work of Lori Gottlieb, this episode is going to be very
0:46.8	eye-opening to you. And right now, many of you are like, oh, I know her work. Yes, indeed. She was
0:52.1	the author of the New York Times bestseller. Maybe you should
0:54.3	talk to someone, which I think has sold somewhere around 10 million copies. It was the number
1:00.9	one audible nonfiction book of the year last year. NPR's favorite book of the year. Time
1:05.6	magazine must read. You get the point. It was extremely well regarded and for good reason.
1:10.7	And our conversation today is so
1:14.2	powerful as a derivative of that book and much more. We identify this idea of talking to other people
1:24.4	and as, you know, oddly simple but hugely powerful, we all have strange,
1:34.8	individual, mysterious lives, but when you really start to peel back the onion, it's your mind
1:42.4	that gives us the ability to transform our lives.
1:47.7	So why not do the work?
1:50.4	Why not double down on, you've heard me talk at length about mindset, right?
1:55.8	Well, in addition to her clinical practice, Lori writes for the Atlantic, this dear therapist advice
2:04.0	column, which I don't know if you're familiar with that.
2:06.4	She's also a regular writer for The New York Times.
2:08.9	Her TED Talk was one of the things that really made me want to have her on the show in addition
2:13.3	to, of course, the book.
