101: Does it feel like EVERYTHING is falling apart?

by | Jul 6, 2020 | 2 comments

Have you ever felt like your life (or the world around you) was falling apart…  and felt hopeless because of it?

I think MOST of us know the feeling.

And it’s not exactly the way you want to go through life!

The good news is, you can turn things around.

On this episode of The Dr. Gundry Podcast, I speak with Mark Manson.

Mark is the author of the acclaimed New York Times bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. (Yes folks, that’s really the title!) 

Recently, he’s come out with a new book: Everything is F*cked: A Book About Hope.

Tune in to hear us talk about the importance of being (and staying) hopeful even if it seems totally illogical!

You’ll also learn how to “rewrite” the narratives inside your head… and be happier and healthier as a result.

On this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What Mark says about the “rainbows and unicorns” approach to self help (2:45)
  • Something no one knows about me (5:20)
  • The “happiness obsession” — and why we need to drop it (7:35)
  • The GOOD thing about feeling sad or angry (8:45)
  • Why living in the pandemic is actually… easy? (10:00)
  • How Mark achieved all of his wildest dreams… then got depressed (13:00)
  • “The uncomfortable truth” and why we need to come to terms with it (15:00)
  • Why you need a “psychological carrot” to live a better life (17:40)
  • How old I was when I decided to be DOCTOR Gundry — and why my mom had nothing to do with it (20:40)
  • What to do when you’re feeling “down and out” during this pandemic (26:40)
  • How a burly Australian man made Mark cry. “I’m not used to seeing this.” (31:00)
  • That time Penny and I lost our home and cars… and the surprising thing that saved us (36:00)
