Iron Man & Avoiding Your Real Problems

Are people solving the wrong problems in their life due to ignorance or because the real problems that need attention are too much to handle? Is it that likes, income, affiliation, grandiose behaviour and more, deter us from solving the problem that will give us freedom and an improved state of mind? In this episode we look at the infamous Tony Stark (Iron Man) to see where he would rather save the world than solve his own problems which appears to leave him rich, famous, powerful and also lonely, neurotic, and unhappy. In pairing together this modern day Marvel character with the infamous Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, I hope you enjoy this episode!
