Summary
Welcome to the very first episode of Inner Propaganda . In this episode, I open up about the darkest moment of my life, at 14 years old, sitting down to write a goodbye note to my parents, and the one question that stopped me, shifted my beliefs, and ultimately saved my life. That moment became the foundation for everything I've built since. I also explore the fascinating difference between fact and truth , why your brain is the ultimate internal propagandist, and introduce one of the most powerful frameworks I've ever developed: The brain's context window , and how you can deliberately use it to change the stories you sell to yourself. In this episode, you'll discover: Why your brain doesn't show you reality — it sells you a story The study of 500,000 people across 145 countries that reveals when we're most miserable (spoiler: I'm living it) The difference between a fact and a truth, and why it changes everything What Inner Propaganda actually is, and how your own mind uses it against you Two practical tools — uploading into your brain's context window and brain prompting — to start rewriting the beliefs holding you back If you're ready to stop being a victim of your own inner propaganda and start your own Inner Revolution , this episode is your starting point.
