In this episode, host Paula Felps sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Deepika Chopra to explore what real optimism looks like in a world filled with uncertainty. Drawing from her new book, The Power of Real Optimism, Dr. Deepika explains why optimism isn’t about rose‑colored glasses or pretending everything is fine; it’s a trainable psychological skill rooted in authenticity, resilience, and the belief that challenges are temporary and navigable.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why optimism is a skill — not a personality trait — and how to strengthen it.
- How your brain processes uncertainty and the small, science‑backed practices that help restore safety and regulation.
- How tools like visualization, evidence‑collecting, and scheduled “worry time” can shift your mindset and build real resilience.
