#123 - Lake District Roadcast - Dr Joey Weber Returns - Positive Psychology, Glimmers and Fish & Chips
from Awaken Out Of Context · host Jason Berry | High Performance
I put Dr Joey Weber in the passenger seat, let ChatGPT choose the route, and drove through the Southern Lake District for the first ever guest Roadcast.What started as a rainy drive turned into a conversation about panic attacks, death anxiety, getting older, positive psychology, dopamine loops, burnout, AI, nature, and somehow… fish and chips.This one goes from genuinely deep to completely ridiculous.In this episode:• Why panic attacks can feel like you’re dying• Health anxiety vs death anxiety• Getting older and seeing your parents age• Joey’s new book on equanimity and positive psychology• Trauma, responsibility and not making pain your identity• Dopamine loops, phones, boredom and AI work addiction• Burnout, recovery and getting back to basics• £31 fish and chips in the Lake DistrictComment below: have you ever had a panic attack that felt physical?TIME STAMPS00:00 I thought I was dying00:52 The first guest Roadcast begins01:15 Letting ChatGPT choose the route02:02 Picking up Dr Joey Weber03:44 Having it all but feeling miserable04:13 The panic attack that changed everything06:46 Death anxiety vs health anxiety07:35 Getting older and seeing everyone change10:28 Why this became the 100th episode11:03 Reaching 100 podcast episodes11:56 Joey’s honest first impression of the podcast14:15 Why Joey nearly didn’t want to podcast again15:40 Joey’s book deal16:08 Positive psychology and equanimity17:09 Adlerian psychology and responsibility19:30 Trauma without making it your identity22:07 What’s strong, not what’s wrong24:57 The PERMA model explained27:28 Blaming childhood vs owning the good stuff28:14 Letting be vs letting go29:17 Glimmers and equanimity30:25 Stopping for a wet Lake District walk30:51 Beans on toast, nature and safety31:36 Is filming yourself in nature egotistical?31:55 How Jason relaxes32:35 Do podcasters copy other podcasters?33:01 The Raincast begins33:08 Patience, discomfort and British weather33:40 Dopamine Nation and modern pleasure34:13 Are young people chasing micro-pleasure?36:52 Phones, boredom and losing imagination37:22 AI work addiction and burnout38:45 The work row that exposed burnout39:37 Passion fatigue and rebuilding basics40:42 Mental fitness and recovery speed41:33 The fish and chips detour42:28 Vinegar and blood sugar43:20 Batter, gluten and getting older45:32 Organic apples and energy fields46:42 The £31 fish and chips shock48:58 Fish and chip dates49:16 Energetic fields after fish and chips50:44 Why Joey doesn’t do movie quotes51:46 Meeting Steve Coogan on MDMA52:50 Accidental fish and chip reviewers🎙️ MY STUFFAwaken Out of Context: https://awakenoutofcontext.comThe Chapter System: https://thechaptersystem.comVLOGS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ky3sQEMwUM&list=PLMebuClQRf09N1EW4xaBRDZJQqPlDB_5BJOEY’S STUFF:Joey’s Instagram:https://bit.ly/45oS7MQJoey’s Website:https://bit.ly/437uKmVJoey’s Book:https://bit.ly/45vJgqq
