What does it truly mean to know yourself—and why is it so hard to do?
In today’s episode of Strategies for Living, we’re joined by University of Chicago professor and life strategist J. Eric Oliver, author of How to Know Yourself: The Art and Science of Discovering Who You Really Are. Together, we explore the hidden illusions that keep us stuck, including the “Gold Star” myth of success, the stories we live by but didn’t write, and the mistaken belief that the self is fixed rather than dynamic.
This powerful conversation weaves psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and lived experience to help you better understand consciousness, identity, emotional patterns, and what it really takes to live with greater clarity, balance, and inner freedom. If you’ve ever felt like something invisible is holding you back, this episode offers a courageous and compassionate path forward.
🎧 A must-listen for anyone seeking self-knowledge, personal growth, and a more authentic way of living.
