195. Is There Something Wrong With Me?

In this episode, 195 - Is There Something Wrong With Me?, I tackle the common narrative that there is something wrong with today's youth and young adults. I share my frustration with this perspective and explain why it can be so detrimental. The key is understanding confirmation bias - the way our brains seek to prove what we already believe to be true. When we tell someone they are broken or lacking in some way, that's all their brain will focus on. Instead, I encourage focusing on what's going right, looking towards a positive future, and lifting others up. We need to quit pointing out problems and instead empower the rising generation to see their own worth and potential. Ultimately, there is nothing wrong with you. You are a divine creation of our Heavenly Parents, and any struggles you face are part of the human experience. With the Savior's help, you can overcome anything. Let's shift the narrative and start celebrating all the amazing things young people are capable of.
