Overcoming Unshakable Unhappiness: Remove that rock from your shoe! with Dr Adam Dorsay

from Mid-life Men: the mental health podcast · host Philip Briscoe / Dr Adam Dorsay

Are you craving more energy, deeper relationships, and a stronger sense of purpose, yet somehow, you are caught in a cycle of “unshakable unhappiness”? In this illuminating conversation, I sit down with psychologist and Silicon Valley executive coach Dr. Adam Dorsey to explore how tapping into the power of authentic connection can transform every area of your life. Drawing on his personal journey and clinical experience with high-achieving men, entrepreneurs, professional athletes, and global tech companies, Dr. Dorsey reveals why many of us—especially men—struggle to name and process our emotions, and how this disconnect can fuel anxiety, depression, and a sense of hopelessness. Adam also introduces his groundbreaking framework from his new book, Super Psyched: Unleash the Power of the Four Types of Connection and Live the Life You Love, explaining how these four pillars of connection - self, others, the world, and something greater - are the bedrock of genuine fulfilment. Along the way, we tackle the power of self-compassion (even Navy SEALs use it!), the science of gratitude for rewiring negative thought patterns, and the courage it takes to reshape your life - even when you feel stuck in a job or situation that seems unchangeable. If you’ve ever felt the gap between what you know and what you do, this conversation will inspire you to close it. Listen and discover practical, research-backed ways to rewrite your inner script, harness your strengths, and step fully into the rich, connected life you deserve.  If you want to find out more about Adam, visit his website: dradamdorsay.com. Adam’s TEDx talks are both available on YouTube: Friendships in Adulthood: 5 Things to Know, and Emotions: The Data Men Miss. Adam’s book Super Psyched: Unleash the Power of the 4 Types of Connection and Live the Life You Love is available to buy on Amazon.
