The Infinity Loop of Sameness and Difference




Courage & Spice: the podcast for humans with Self-doubt show

Summary: In this episode, we explore a concept from developmental psychology that our growth as adults is partly about increasing our capacity to understand, reflect on and respond to two key psychological states: sameness and difference. Sameness is where we feel safe, where we integrate what we learn. Difference offers us the stimulation of newness that we need to grow. We explore what happens within these states, how we get stuck and why self-doubt is integral to keep moving.
