Episode 86: Simple isn’t easy

from PsycHacks · host Orion Taraban

It's often the case that the solution to some of our most long-standing and intractable problems is incredibly simple. However, we are subject to creating unnecessary complexity as a defense mechanism in order to embed the problem in our lives.
