Jay Shetty sits down with Gabrielle Bernstein to talk about how past trauma affects our daily life. Within us is our protector self, that part of us that takes over when we face fear, danger, sadness, longing, and feel hurt. And our protective self can sometimes stop us from taking chances, from taking risks. It can possibly hinder our growth and healing. Let’s tap into this inner version of us and make peace with our wounded self.

Gabrielle Bernstein is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Universe Has Your Back, Super Attractor, and has written six additional bestsellers including her latest book, Super Attractor. Gabrielle was featured on Oprah’s SuperSoul Sunday as a “next-generation thought leader,” and The Oprah Winfrey Network chose Gabby to be part of the “SuperSoul 100,” a dynamic group of 100 trailblazers whose vision and life’s work are bringing a higher level of consciousness to the world. The New York Times identified her as “a new role model.”

Many of us practice the habit of making a new year’s resolution, often to change something, to achieve something, or build something. Our resolutions are pointed toward starting fresh and having a productive year ahead.

But some don’t get to fulfill this list. Some don’t get to make a significant change in their life because they often don’t develop the resolve to fulfill them. The goal is clear but the path to reach that goal is undefined and the intention to create that path isn’t set.

In this episode, Jay Shetty talks about the steps to help you start these significant changes right away and achieve results that are truly life-changing.

This episode is based on the book "The Alter Ego Effect," by Todd Herman. Do you ever wish you were someone else? Someone richer, stronger, more beautiful or well-spoken - like a movie star? It’s tempting to want to be something you’re not, comparing yourself to the people you see in television and movies, but don’t wish away who you are!

In exploring this book, Jay Shetty gives you a lighthearted view of how to tap into your inner alter ego. You'll learn five steps to becoming more like someone you admire just by modeling them.
