Summary

This week’s conversation is with Dr. Trudy Goodman, the founding teacher of InsightLA and cofounder of the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy.

Trudy has trained in mindfulness and Zen since 1973, holds a graduate degree in developmental psychology from Harvard, and is one of the senior Buddhist teachers in the U.S.

She has taught at universities and retreat centers worldwide for 25 years.

Trudy is widely known for her role as Trudy the Love Barbarian in the Netflix series "Midnight Gospel”.

She is a contributing author to the Clinical Handbook of Mindfulness, Compassion and Wisdom in Psychotherapy, and Mindfulness and Psychotherapy.

And she’s also married to Jack Kornfield, who we were fortunate to have on the podcast just a few weeks back!

Trudy is a truly, a special human being.

In this conversation we discuss so much… the importance of trusting yourself and why that ultimately starts with loving yourself, which can be a big hurdle for some of us.

We also touch on Trudy's spiritual framework, which focuses on the relationship between the mind and the heart.

It's about allowing herself to be informed by intuition (the wisdom of the heart) rather than solely her analytical, cerebral mind.

0:00.0	there's a way that we can learn to understand how we perceive the world and that our perception
0:07.6	of things actually determines the happiness or unhappiness that we have in any given moment.
0:13.5	Like, we can't control what's happening often, but we can certainly control our relationship to it.
0:19.0	And the Dharma is the teachings of all the different methods. They're countless ones, like you were
0:24.3	saying. All the different methods that develop the skill of being able to be more and more rooted
0:32.8	in loving awareness of what's happening. And the trust that we're not alone in this life,
0:39.4	that we really are interdependent and interconnected. And that's why the siloing and
0:47.2	separation that's happening, and we just read the comments in any social media. You know,
0:53.2	that's why it sort of baffles me. I think how did we get so far away from the truth of our lives
0:59.9	together as humans?
1:11.5	Okay, welcome back. We're welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Michael Jurvey.
1:17.3	And by trade and training, I'm a sport and performance psychologist. And the whole idea behind
1:21.6	these conversations is to learn from people who are on the path of mastery. We want to better understand
1:27.2	what they're searching for, their psychological framework that they use to build and refine their
1:32.0	craft to make sense of themselves, to make sense of events that take place in this complicated life
1:37.5	that we live. And what are they doing to make it as simple as possible to get the wisdom, to get
1:42.8	the truth, and to get to the places that they can reveal high performance and express it on a
1:48.0	consistent basis. And if you want to learn more about how you can train your mind, it's just a
1:54.0	quick reminder here to check out the online course that I created with head coach of the Seattle
1:58.2	Seahawks Pete Carroll. You can punch over to findingmastery.net forward slash course.
2:05.1	Finding Mastery is brought to you by Nets.com. Here at the Finding Mastery Lab, they are our go-to
