In this episode of The Optimized Mind, Dr. Kate talks with Ryan Quirk, author of An 18 Year-Old’s Guide to Self-Mastery: How to Master Your Life from the Inside Out. The discussion takes a deep dive into Ryan’s book, focusing on his ideas and teachings related to self-mastery. Ryan talks candidly about some of his past struggles which were, in many ways, a catalyst for his journey towards self-mastery and ultimately his book. Central themes which emerge through this powerful discussion include defining self-mastery through a four-pillar system outlined in the book which includes the mental-emotional-physical and spiritual domains. Dr. Kate and Ryan take a close look at how mastering these pillars leads us to a life of love and joy, along with the importance of learning to quiet the mind, finding power within, the perils of self-criticism and the idea that change does not have to be complicated.
