How Pleasure & Pain Help You Find Your Motivation
Manage episode 371575717 series 3484024
Why do you do what you do?
Doing the Words of Love podcast has not only helped me grow the substack community but has also helped me grow as a communicator, clinician, healer, and educator.
I like to think of today as the beginning of the podcast’s second season. It’s also what I hope will be the first installment of one-on-one coaching conversations as a monthly feature.
So I’ve invited medical student Christian Hemmerich onto the show. He is a The Art of No Conversations substack member, who not only was one of the first to join the community but remains one of its most active participants.
In this episode of Words of Love, you’ll learn about the pleasure principle framework we talk about within the substack community and how it can help you discover and develop your reason for doing what you choose to do. You’ll also hear about a similarity in how Christian and I both grew up, how we both decided to go into the medical field, and other interesting tangents.
