Breaking Patterns and Finding Your Authentic Self with Dr. Monica Vermani

On this episode of What Are You Made Of?, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with Dr. Monica Vermani, a renowned clinical psychologist, author, and speaker, for a deep and inspiring conversation about what it truly means to live authentically and rise into your best self.Dr. Vermani shares her philosophy on being an “uplifter”—someone who not only strives to live at their highest level but also brings out the best in those around them. She explains how we all begin life as pure, authentic beings filled with unconditional love, but as we grow, societal pressures, expectations, and negative belief systems begin to distance us from our true selves. Drawing from her decades of clinical experience, Dr. Vermani explores the three ways life’s struggles often manifest—through physical symptoms, negative thoughts, and maladaptive behaviors—and how these patterns can hold us back until we begin the work of healing.Together, Dr. Vermani and Mike "C-Roc" discuss the power of intentional living, the ripple effect of working on ourselves, and how our environments and relationships either drain us or uplift us. With insights from her personal journey, professional practice, and even her TED Talk, Dr. Vermani sheds light on how to recognize patterns, break free from cycles, and reconnect with the authentic version of ourselves we were always meant to be.This episode is a masterclass in self-awareness, resilience, and personal transformation. If you’re ready to stop living for others and start embracing your highest and best self, you won’t want to miss this conversation.Website: https://www.drmonicavermani.com/Social Media Links/Handleshttps://www.instagram.com/drmonicavermanihttps://www.book.adeeperwellness.com/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpEyP2KfZT4https://www.facebook.com/DoctorMonicaVermanihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mvermani/https://www.tiktok.com/@drmonicavermani
