About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Does life feel smaller than it used to? Does it seem that the people around you have taken a step back from doing hard things, preferring to stay in their comfort zone?
In the era of TikTok as therapy, it’s tempting to see ourselves as damaged and powerless – defined by our past traumas, our emotions and the struggles we face. But it’s more important than ever to rise above the limiting beliefs and widespread anxiety that puts us in boxes, lowers our expectations and holds us back.
In Rise Above, renowned psychologist Dr Scott Barry Kaufman unpacks the dangerous myths and misleading buzzwords swirling around the popular imagination. He reveals the truth about managing our emotions, the double-edged sword of self-esteem, the surprising gifts of sensitivity, and ultimately, the power each of us has to overcome challenges and to shape the course of our own lives.
Packed with empathy, insight, humour and actionable solutions, this book will empower you to take control of your own your life and reach your full potential.

Highlights what is important and avoids oversimplification as much as possible. A very scientific analysis.
