The Humbling: The Science of Post-Traumatic Growth - E198
Dr. JC Doornick on his cancer diagnosis, post-traumatic growth, and the mortality awareness that reset his life priorities. Listen to The Humbling now.
Everything you're stressed about today? Most of it is about to become worthless. Not because you'll fix it. Because something bigger is about to make it look small.
I'm Dr. JC Doornick. I was recently diagnosed with cancer, and what happened next wasn't just fear. It was the fastest reordering of my priorities I've ever felt. Things I obsessed over for years, gone in a week.
Research on post-traumatic growth says most people go through this exact shift. By the end of this episode, you'll know what you're getting wrong about your own time.
This is The Humbling.
