#76: Why You Keep Attracting the Same People, Jobs, and Problems
In this episode, Drs. Derek and Laura Cabrera of Cornell University unpack a deceptively simple idea that has massive implications: never leave a place—only go to a place. What started as a personal insight turned into a powerful life rule that breaks the cycle of self-sabotage and repeating patterns.
They explore how seeing patterns—not just events—gives you the power to change your life, why externalities and baggage follow you when you don't deal with them, and how turning hard-earned lessons into rules creates real wisdom. Whether it’s relationships, jobs, or cities, this episode will help you stop running and start transforming.
