Finding Ground When Everything Is Changing with Dr. Dave
About this episode
It’s easy to believe that once we arrange our life correctly, the anxiety will quiet and the sense of lack will disappear. A little more money. A different role. A better version of ourselves. Then things will finally settle.
This conversation explores that subtle threshold—where striving turns into infatuation, where comparison erodes self-trust, and where we begin chasing a fantasy of a life that is somehow all upside. Dr. Aziz sits down with Dr. Dave Tuck to reflect on values, identity, and the illusion that fulfillment lives somewhere outside our current experience. Together they examine the tension between growth and gratitude, ambition and alignment, and what happens when we stop trying to engineer a perfect life and instead learn to see the one we’re already in.
This is not a formula for attracting more. It’s an inquiry into self-worth, clarity, and the steady ground that comes from knowing who you are.
You might find yourself looking at your own life a little differently.
