Bite Size: What a Performance Psychologist Knows About Fear | Dr Scott Goldman
About this episode
Fear isn’t weakness. It’s wiring. Your brain can’t tell the difference between a boardroom and a battlefield. A tough conversation can trigger the same survival response as a physical threat.
Performance psychologist Dr Scott Goldman explains why so many of our fears are rooted in primal instincts — and why they feel so intense, even when our lives aren’t actually at risk.
When you understand what your nervous system is really doing, you stop fighting fear… and start working with it.
