Why Chasing Goals Is Making You Miserable - Dr. Anne-Laure Le Cunff | #11
<p>Do you ever feel like you’re following a script for success that wasn’t written by you? In this episode, we challenge the traditional life scripts that keep us stuck and explore how embracing uncertainty can lead to growth. Why aren’t goal-obsessed people truly free? How does curiosity shape our trajectory? And what happens when we stop searching for purpose and start experimenting instead? We’ll discuss simple ways to test new possibilities, overcome the fear of standing out, and reframe doubt as an opportunity. Tune in to learn how thinking like a scientist can help you break free from limiting beliefs and design a life that evolves with you.</p><p>Anne-Laure is an award-winning neuroscientist and entrepreneur.
