In this episode of "A Changed Mind", our host, David Bayer, explores the paradox of wanting and creating change in your life. David reveals how deep craving and attachment to desired outcomes—whether it's wealth, health, or fulfillment—can actually block you from achieving them.

Instead of pushing harder, David shares the importance of detachment, regulating your nervous system, and cultivating a sense of safety within. Through neuroscience, spirituality, and practical wisdom, he guides listeners to move from a primal survival state to a powerful, present state.
