In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Phil to unpack the simple habits behind five decades of work in human behavior, why anxiety is fear without a real threat, the four questions he asks himself to stay honest, and the one exercise he says rewires your brain. But there's one line he keeps coming back to that changes how you see everything: there will never be another you.
