In this episode I tackle the dark side of meaning making. As humans we instinctively assign meaning to events or experiences we go through. Some of the info I draw from comes from Dr. Benjamin Hardy's book Personality Isn't Permanent. In the book he says "we can generate a premature cognitive commitment about ourselves" this cognitive commitment can be based on mistaken or misinformed meaning of things. Meaning that begins or helps to shape our self-image and how we see the world.
Creating meaning is fundamental to who we are and who we become. As Brene Brown says, "we are meaning makers!"
I also reference the Same Love by Macklemore & Ryan.
How trauma leads to attaching meaning about ourselves is discussed as well.
