Episode notes

This chapter emphasizes the dangers of comparing oneself to others in measuring success and advocates for internal metrics of fulfillment. It explores concepts of envy, confidence, and the importance of recognizing one's lineage for personal growth, while drawing on Buddhist perspectives. Listeners are encouraged to embrace their humanity and the complexity of their emotions to cultivate deeper self-awareness and connection.

Ever feel like life's ups and downs are knocking you off balance? Discover how to cultivate unshakable self-trust with Buddhist teacher Ethan Nichtern, author of Confidence: Holding Your Seat through Life's Eight Worldly Winds.

Ethan shares ancient practices for navigating the emotional hurricanes of pleasure/pain, praise/criticism, fame/insignificance and success/failure we all face. Whether you're battling imposter syndrome, recovering from a breakup or redefining your career path, learn to access the four powers of true confidence - compassion, lineage, awareness and "wind horse" - so you can stay centered amid the storm.
