Allison Carmen: Breaking the Addiction to Certainty

Allison Carmen was a lawyer whose anxiety about the unknown future nearly wrecked her health, until a Taoist story about a farmer handed her a single word: maybe. She explains how casting doubt on your own doubt loosens the grip of regret, fear, and the stories we tell about why we are not okay. The conversation covers the difference between wisdom and fear when learning from failure, and a case study of a client she walked back from bankruptcy during the 2008 crash.
