129 - Your Brain Is Ghosting Your Future Self — And It's Costing You

What if the real cost of playing it safe isn't what you miss today—it's who you never become tomorrow?
Your brain treats your future self like a stranger—and that's why you keep choosing comfort over courage. In this episode, I explore the neuroscience behind this disconnect and why it leads us to make decisions our future selves will regret. You'll discover why prioritizing what feels safer today is actually the riskiest choice you can make.
I share Richard Branson's advice that inspired my climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro (with my four kids!) and why you need to risk more "worthy failure" - the kind you'll never regret. If you're ready to start making braver choices you'll never regret, this one is for you.
In this episode:
- Why your brain treats your future self like a stranger—and how to change it
- The Timidity Tax: the invisible cost of letting fear make decisions
- How to build empathy for the person you are yet to become
- What worthy failure means—and why your future self will thank you for it
