Why Change is So Hard with Paul Smit

This conversation is with Paul Smit, a Dutch philosopher and expert in neuroscience. He’s written 13 books about philosophy, psychology and neuroscience and is one of the most in demand speakers in The Netherlands.

Now, you may be wondering why I chose to speak first to a man from the Netherlands about Non-Duality and philosophy when this show is about women in midlife.

I wanted to start here because these are foundational principles that support me, my body and my mind, in daily life. They may seem esoteric and highly philosophical at first glance, but I hope you can hear this with curiosity and openness. We talk about thoughts, where they come from, changing habits, the practical application of these ideas or “pointers” and a bit about the brain as well.

Paul is a friend, a collaborator with my husband Scott (they wrote a book together called A Cloudless Mind) and someone who walks his talk like no other. Paul is a rare human and it was truly an honor to have him on the show.

Also, for fun, here are a couple of videos Paul, Scott and I made about non-duality for business and leadership 🙂 You can see more on Paul’s YouTube channel linked below.
