Why Change Feels So Hard (Even When It's Good) Travis Hahler

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with leadership strategist and author Travis Hahler to explore the neuroscience of change and why resistance isn't something to fight, it's something to understand.Travis shares practical insights from his new book Rethink Resistance, explaining why all change involves loss, how our brains respond to uncertainty, and what leaders can do to help people navigate transformation more effectively. We discuss habits, psychological safety, AI, curiosity, and the beliefs that help individuals and organisations adapt in a rapidly changing world.Whether you're leading change at work or navigating it in your personal life, this conversation offers powerful tools to help you embrace uncertainty and move forward with confidence.Grab your copy of Travis’ latest book here - https://linktr.ee/theneurologicalnomadLearn more about Travis here - https://travishahler.comFollow Travis on IG here - https://www.instagram.com/theneurologicalnomad/Connect with Travis on LinkedIn here - https://www.linkedin.com/in/travisdhahler/If you’re interested in having me deliver a keynote or workshop for your team contact Caroline at [email protected]: https://www.jjlaughlin.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6GETJbxpgulYcYc6QAKLHA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamesLaughlinOfficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jameslaughlinofficial/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/life-on-purpose-with-james-laughlin/id1547874035 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3WBElxcvhCHtJWBac3nOlF?si=hotcGzHVRACeAx4GvybVOQ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameslaughlincoaching/James Laughlin is a High Performance Leadership Coach, Former 7-Time World Champion, Host of the Lead On Purpose Podcast and an Executive Coach to high performers and leaders.
