How would you answer that question if you were asked -- “Who are you?”
Would you start by describing your profession, marital status, or hobbies? Would you give current or desired character traits? Would your answer be laced with false optimism or misplaced pessimism?
In this episode, Dr. Andy interviews Curtis as they discuss the complexity that comes with answering the question, “Who am I?” and the power that your life can have once you begin the journey to learning the answer.
Have you ever wondered if it was possible to have it all? Deep and meaningful relationships with friends and family, a thriving career that brings significance on a massive scale, and a long life filled with adventure, joy and seeing dreams fulfilled?
In this episode, we get a chance to know Dr. Andy on a deeper level as he lets us in on his transformational process of discovering his authentic self.
What story do you tell yourself about your life? What words do you choose to speak to your loved ones? Are you getting undesirable results in your life that you wish you could trace back to the root, so you could fix the problem for good?
In this episode, Dr. Andy and Curtis discuss how to tell a greater story about ourselves that will ultimately influence who we believe we are. We will dig into what shapes our identity, and how we can reclaim it in order to discover the best possible version of ourselves.
In this episode we dive deeper into Curtis’s story as we discuss what it was like for him growing up with a father who adopted him and what it was like navigating a loving, but messy family. In our society, divorce and broken families are becoming more common and it’s causing a lot of pain.
Being authentic isn’t simply following your emotions in any given moment, but it’s using your deeper internal compass to guide you to your best decisions and to the people who will help you become better.
In this episode, Dr. Andy and Curtis discuss what it really means to be authentically you. In our society there is a lot of confusion on what this word means, and how to find it for ourselves.
In this episode, Dr. Andy interviews Curtis about his core values and links the importance of having clear values and living our best life. When our core values are clear, it impacts our decision making, and we regain the power to break negative habitual cycles. Owning and believing our core values will help us lean into adversity, almost instantaneously, and start to make impactful change in the uncomfortable areas of life.
In this brief session with Dr. Andy, he lets us in on the consequences living inauthentically has on our lives. When we can recognize that our emotions alone are not our identity, we can use them to propel us to who we want to be. Dr. Andy discusses how to realign with our core values in moments of decision.
