Being Mark Miller

<p>If you loved <a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e12saoc" target="_blank">our first chat</a>, this one will blow you away!</p> <p>Mark is back on the Encourager's pod. The basis of our chat today is his new paper looking at wellbeing through the predictive processing lens.&nbsp;</p> <p>But we get into some really juicy stuff.</p> <p>How do we get stuck? What is going on there?&nbsp;</p> <p>This could be with pain, depression or some higher belief. What are the effects of this and importantly, how we reckon we can help people get unstuck.&nbsp;</p> <p>Today was much more of a chat rather than an interview, and we set it up like that, so plenty of back and forth.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love Mark's energy. He is a huge sharer, having realised that this way of being results in wellness and great results: together over tribal.&nbsp;</p> <p>You will love this if you are interested in wellness, pain, depression, anxiety, mental health, coaching, being with people, a manager, a leader, the list goes on.</p> <p>Mark's work informs my approach to helping people understand and overcome their pain.&nbsp;</p> <p>Mark now has his own podcast: <a href="https://www.thecontemplativescientists.com/" target="_blank">The Contemplative Scientist Podcast</a> -- what a cool name! And so perfect!
