#220 - Why Certainty Keeps Us From Happiness

Every day we make decisions and take actions in our life based on what we think, feel, and believe is most important – or what we need. The first human need is the need for Certainty. We need to feel in control and know what's coming next to feel secure. It's the need for basic comfort, the need to avoid pain and stress, and also to create pleasure. Today Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy talks about this certain need and its role in our lives. She also shares how this can keep you from doing what you should and how you can leverage this need to fulfill your dreams.
