Making The Leap To Happiness with Gay Hendricks, Ph.D.

MP3 Download

How happy are you? Are you realizing your potential in your work, your relationships—in your joy? Gay Hendricks has found that most of us get along just fine, thank you, but we’re operating at a level beneath our ultimate happiness. We do a good job at whatever we do, which is satisfying, but something stops us from letting our true genius out into the world. Dr. Hendricks has discovered a “nearly universal human tendency to hold ourselves below a certain thermostat setting of how good we can feel, how much love we can experience, how much financial abundance we can experience, and if we exceed that we often dial up something that brings us back down below that old thermostat setting.” In this provocative conversation you’ll feel your own spark of genius stir as you discover how to make tiny internal shifts that will reprogram your mind to rise above that static thermostat setting and stop sabotaging your relationships, your work, and your joy. You’ll discover how to find your personal zone of genius where time stands still and effortlessly attracts the abundance, the love, and the miracles you’ve been longing for.
