Some people confuse comfort with complacency. Award-winning writer, speaker, and brand advisor Terri Trespicio, however, does not. Following the publication of her new book, Unfollow Your Passion, Terry discusses why her TedX Talk “Stop Searching for Your Passion” was so hugely popular that it has been viewed more than 7 million times while dispelling the idea that following a passion is the only path to a fulfilling or meaningful life.

What comes to mind when you think of hypnosis? Some poor fool in a spotlight quacking like a duck who will have no memory of it later in the night? Or guided meditation with a specific outcome in mind? Brooklyn-based hypnosis and regression therapist Daniel Ryan explains the stark contrast between meaningful hypnotherapy and flashy stage show hypnotism and how, as the son of a clinical psychologist trained in hypnotism by the US military in the 1950s, he spent a lifetime learning to spot the differences. Daniel discusses how hypnotherapy is used not as a magic wand to erase bad habits and memories but as a therapeutic tool to change thinking and behavior. Often misunderstood and misconstrued, hypnotherapy can be used to break bad habits or to overcome personal challenges; Daniel explains how hypnotism leverages pre-existing trance tendencies, not to relinquish a subject’s control, but to help them regain it. Set out to share his knowledge and help those who want to help themselves, Daniel’s practice helps people address a variety of issues ranging from overcoming general or social anxiety and signs of depression, managing stress at work and the pressures of family, to personal trauma and grief management.

Not many people can say they became a professional poker player while researching a book, but in Dr. Maria Konnikova’s case, she can. In her latest book My Biggest Bluff: How I Learned to Pay Attention, Master Myself, and Win, journalist and award-winning author Konnikova explains how her research into the science between luck, skill, randomness, and the myth that hard work always leads to success led her to become an international champion poker player. Konnikova explores the significant overlap between the game of poke and the game of life and finds that it is often what determines success: skill and chance. When playing a game with incomplete information, while you cannot control the randomness of the shuffle, if you can identify where skill ends and chance begins, you can master the skills necessary to succeed. Dr. Konnikova explains how by learning to identify the difference between what is skill and what is chance, we hone our strategic thinking, learning to master what we can control and release what we can’t.

Do you, a loved one, or any of your employees struggle with time management, organization, or decision-making? Does impatience triggers disproportionate anger responses? These could all be signs and symptoms of ADHD. George Sachs, a clinical psychologist specializing in ADHD, discusses how this neuro-developmental disorder may present in the workplace and how it is strongly linked to FOMO. When you are hypersensitive to rejection and constantly seeking acceptance, you will inevitably lack the confidence in the decisions you make. Like FOMO, ADHD can make you feel like whatever it is that you are doing at the moment, isn’t enough and it could always be better, preventing you from being able to focus on your present life. George discusses the implications of this disorder that often impairs executive function, negatively impacting both personal and professional relationships. However, George also provides a path for diagnosis and to develop the strategies through behavioral interventions to manage ADHD and help overcome FOMO. Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever felt frustrated when trying to achieve a specific goal? Maybe you need to see success to achieve it.

Logan Ury, Director of Relationship Science for the dating app Hinge and author of "How to Not Die Alone" discusses the evolution of dating apps and their use during COVID-19 - a period during which most of us have felt more alone than ever. She talks about how her background in behavioral psychology has helped her use data-driven evidence in her research of online dating and finding the key to a happy relationship.
