“The heart pumps blood, the lungs pump oxygen. The brain—well, for me, it has always pumped survival. .. Everything the brain does has a positive intent, but sometimes the way it goes about it is counterproductive. Fortunately, we can change that." - Jason Liem
This week's episode, is from a conversation I had with Annette Dragland on her fascinating podcast, Leger om Livet (Doctors about Life). This conversation is about the challenges I've faced beginning in the early months of 2024 and the lessons I've learned about building resilience.
These lessons and insights I've had form The Contrarian Mindset series that I launched in January 2025. You can find the links to the series introduction at the end of the show notes.
In the episode we talked about:
- How do we build resilience?
- Can we reframe the way we view our life?
- Why is cognitive hygiene so important in life?
- Practical skills to improve our mental health and resilience
