When we think of "choking," we usually think of a field goal kicker missing a clutch kick, or someone freezing up during an important speech. In those moments, the mind is overcome with fear, doubt, and anxiety, and the body, sensing danger, shuts down, overriding ability and preparation. In his newest book Win the Inside Game, Steve Magness makes the case that many of the aspects of modern living make us feel similarly threatened and frozen. It can underlie why we feel burnt out at work, stuck in a creative rut, or unfulfilled in our relationships. On today's show, he discusses his newest book, providing a deeper understanding of how we got here and sharing his three-step framework for moving from surviving to thriving: figuring out who you are, why you do what you do, and how to belong.
