199: 10 Things I Was Wrong About

Growth begins when you’re willing to admit you were wrong. As Unstuck approaches its 200th episode, Jay looks back at how nearly 200 episodes of conversations, research, and personal growth have changed the way he thinks. In this special two-part series, he shares 10 things he once believed that he now realizes he was wrong about. In Part 1, Jay counts down lessons 10 through 6, from something as fundamental as how we breathe to bigger shifts in how he thinks about mindfulness, self-doubt, courage, and leadership. He explores why mindfulness alone isn’t enough, why even the highest achievers experience self-doubt, why courage doesn’t require battling fear, and why leaders must consider both their intentions and their impact. It’s a candid reflection on what it means to remain open, challenge your assumptions, and keep evolving.
