2035: The Psychology of Self Worth, Money and Success

<p>What if the thing standing between you and more success, more money, even better relationships…isn’t a lack of opportunity?</p><p>What if it’s your ability to actually believe you’re worthy of what comes your way?</p><br><p>My guest today is <a href="https://drmarisagfranco.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dr. Marisa G. Franco</a>, a psychologist, TED speaker, professor at the University of Maryland and <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author who has an incredible gift for taking complicated psychological research and making it feel deeply personal — and useful.</p><br><p>You may know her from her bestselling book <a href="https://drmarisagfranco.com/platonic-the-book/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Platonic: How the Science of Attachment Can Help You Make—and Keep—Friends</em></a>. Her newest book, <a href="https://drmarisagfranco.com/worth-the-book/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Worth</em></a>, goes even deeper, exploring how our sense of self-worth gets formed, how it shapes our relationships and choices, and how we can begin to change it.</p><br><p>We talk about how the way we learned to connect with people as children can follow us into adulthood — showing up not only in our friendships and romantic relationships, but in how we earn, spend, invest and take risks with money.</p><br><p>We get into why some people actually feel worse when good things happen to them. Why telling yourself “I am rich, I am loved, I am amazing” might actually backfire. And some fascinating research suggesting that education, wealth and other advantages can only take us so far if we don’t have the self-worth to capitalize on them.</p><br><p>And maybe my favorite takeaway: becoming more secure isn’t about eliminating all of your insecurities. It’s about being able to recognize them without letting them run the show.</p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Learn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop </strong><a href="http://booktobrand.co" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Book to Brand.</strong></a><strong> Early bird registration is now open!</strong></p>
