About this episode

Dr. Paul Conti is a psychiatrist and author of the new book “What's Going Right.” This conversation flips the script on a field focused on what's wrong, and asks a different question: what's going right? We get into the three human drives, the structure of self, self-sabotage, boundaries, and the simple goodness principle. Paul is a gift, and the new book is a beautiful offering. Enjoy!
