OM DENNA PODDSÄNDNING 🔗
The Self in Sync is a podcast about concepts the pop psychology community loves to villainize and why they're more nuanced than we've been led to believe. I explore topics like perfectionism, rigidity, and black-and-white thinking—not to defend them blindly, but to examine when they help, when they hurt, and how to use them intentionally.
If you've ever been told you're "too much" of something—too rigid, too perfectionistic, too in your head—this podcast is for you. Those traits aren't inherently bad, as pop psychologists often tout. It depends on how you use them.
That said, this podcast isn't limited to criticizing pop psychology. Some episodes will be about books, art, philosophy--whatever rabbit hole I've fallen into that week. If it's something I find interesting, it's fair game.
New episodes every few weeks. Mini-episodes in between.

Three random thoughts. Three completely different places they led me.

We've all been told that complaining is bad. But is it really that simple? In this episode, we unpack the difference between venting and complaining, when complaining can actually be useful, and when it becomes a waste of time.

We all face barriers on the path to our goals. Some are practical, like time, money, and health. But others are invisible and rooted in insecurity and anxiety. In this episode, we explore why these invisible barriers form, how they're passed down through families, and why our brains are wired to ho…
In this episode, we explore why people react so strongly when others achieve success with seemingly minimal effort from a psychological and philosophical perspective. We offer practical advice on how to navigate your own journey without getting caught up in useless comparisons.
