emotion

Taboos. Intolerable foods. Sad songs. Sexy kinks. Candy that looks like poo. Let’s get a little gross, shall we? The foremost expert in disgust, Dr. Paul Rozin, chats about the emotions related to revulsion – and BOY HOWDY do we cover some ground. Why do some things gross us out and others don’t? Can we change that? Learn how research psychologists study disgust, from butterflies to bigotry, and from pranks to power dynamics. Maybe don’t eat lunch while you listen, but definitely tune in to learn how to conquer some fears.

Yuval Noah Harari is one of the rare historians who can give us a two-million-year perspective on today’s headlines. In this wide-ranging conversation, Yuval explains how technology and democracy have evolved together over the course of human history, from paleolithic tribes to city states to kingdoms to nation states. So where do we go from here? “In almost all the conversations I have,” Yuval says, “we get stuck in dystopia and we never explore the no less problematic questions of what happens when we avoid dystopia.” We push beyond dystopia and consider the nearly unimaginable alternatives in this special episode of Your Undivided Attention.

“We are all faced with great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.”

GET IN TOUCH WITH YOUR SUPERPOWERS.
All of us have superpowers.
They are the things that come easily to us.
You have to find your superpower and then use it to change the world.
Why is it so important?
Because once you are coming from a place of passion, the rest will follow.
People who lead with a desire for money or fame won’t have the same impact.
It’s all about your intention.
On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk with an amazing entrepreneur and mother who has honed in on her superpowers and helps others find theirs: Rebekah Neumann.
Rebekah Neumann is a founding partner and Chief Brand Officer at WeWork, where she has directed the company’s mission, values, and culture from its inception. As an artist, entrepreneur, and yogi, Neumann has also worked as an equity trader for Solomon Smith Barnet, gained certification as a Jivamukti yoga teacher and acted in and produced a number of film projects.
Neumann majored in Business and studied Buddhism at Cornell University. Mother to five children, she is committed to creating a conscious educational community that fosters growth in children’s minds, bodies, and souls, unleashing endless happiness, global citizenship, and every child’s superpowers.
Rebekah has now created WeGrow as a new approach to childhood education. She’s hoping to consciously and authentically help the planet through her work using her superpower of intuition.
So get ready to get in touch with your superpowers on Episode 716.

“NO ONE FEELS 100% CONFIDENT IN THEMSELVES ALL THE TIME.” - EMILY SKYE
There’s so many times where we focus on what society tells us will make us happy, and that’s all we chase. Money, a nice car, a house, and material objects that show off our “success."
We always end up overlooking ourselves. You avoid exercising until the doctor says you have to. I’m sure you’ve experienced it plenty. You ignore your stress at work until you just can’t take it anymore.
Ultimately your emotional state should take a priority. Without it, you can’t be at your best. At the end of the day, happiness is an emotional. All of the material items in the world can’t get you there.
That’s why I wanted to do a mashup this week on overcoming emotional obstacles from some of the masters: Emily Skye, Josh Shipp, Rupi Kaur and Joshua Millburn.
On this episode you’ll learn how to overcome emotional barriers that continue to hold us back.
If you take these lessons from people who have come from all walks of life you’ll be able to achieve your true destiny.
Please, sit down with this one and take notes. I know it’s going to help you tremendously.
So learn how to keep your emotions in line to nail your goals, and feel fulfilled, on Episode 671.
Some Questions I Ask:
Do you still go through times of being insecure? (5:40)
Why do you get insecure at times? (6:32)
If something isn’t working in your business, how do you handle the inner critic? (10:26)
How old were you (Shipp) when you met your final foster parents? (15:56)
Do you (Rupi) think your work would be as powerful without going through pain and suffering? (19:43)
In This Episode You Will Learn:
What everyone needs to be responsible for (5:04)
Tools you can use to overcome insecurities (7:48)
How Emily stays grounded when things are going well (11:38)
How Josh Shipp was emotionally removed from people who were trying to help him (14:02)

The danger of being your own worst enemy (18:41)
How Rupi continues to create new things (21:03)
What you need to focus on (22:34)
