Self-Improvement Isn't For Everyone | Andrew Trott #25
from LikeMinds · host Luis Bulnes
Andy Trott is a self-improvement advocate and the founder of Plan to Elevate.In this episode, Andy opens up about the year that changed everything: 2016, when his marriage ended, his father passed away, and his best friend died of a brain tumour — all within six months. From a career spent in high-pressure nuclear and oil & gas project management, surrounded by a culture of silent masculinity, Andy had zero tools to cope. That breaking point became his turning point.We cover why self-improvement genuinely isn't for everyone, the danger of getting stuck in a "learning loop," why nostalgia can quietly trap your progress, and how men in particular are conditioned to bury pain until it explodes. Andy also shares his goal-setting framework, his thoughts on the workplace mental health crisis, and why — even now — he's still very much a work in progress.Andrew's Links:https://www.instagram.com/plan_to_elevate?igsh=d3QxNm1zMms1bWVo&utm_source=qrMy Links:https://luisbulnes.kit.com/audiobook
