Does it feel like you keep falling into the same negative patterns in your life? Or like you can’t seem to change the way you react to something or someone, no matter how hard you try? Or maybe there’s a certain aspect of your personality that you’ve had since childhood, and now, it’s just getting in your way? 

If you relate, it might be time to rewire your ‘source code’…

Joining me on the show today is psychologist Dr Sam Rader, founder of Source Code Psychology — the therapeutic practice of identifying the unconscious algorithms behind our negative patterns and re-writing them for a healthier, more beautiful life.

Dr Sam, a practicing psychologist with 18 years of clinical experience and author of an upcoming book, believes that in our first five years of life, our experiences write a ‘source code’ in our unconscious, which then determines the way that the rest of our life unfolds. 

In this powerful conversation, Dr Sam is teaching us how to rewire that source code, so that we can stop reverting to the coping patterns we picked up in childhood (which are no longer serving us), and instead, intentionally create the psychological foundations for the best version of ourselves to emerge.

This is a must-listen episode. If you want to know how to understand and use the powerful tool that is your mind more effectively, and to step out of the repetitive behaviours, beliefs, and relationship patterns that are keeping you stuck, you’re going to absolutely LOVE this conversation. 

It’s also essential listening for all parents who want to break the cycle of psychological and spiritual suffering with their own children, and help them build a robust, resilient psyche from the get-go.

So if you want to learn how to decipher the unconscious code that’s been holding you back, how to rewire it so that you can effortlessly be the best version of yourself, and how to begin the process of emergence into who you really are, then pop in those earbuds… this one’s for you.

• The amazing ways that newborns relate to their parents and what happens when there’s a communication error (07:13)

• Why surrendering to your feelings instead of resisting them is a shortcut to huge personal growth (39:30)
