How to Handle Being Ghosted (in friendship and dating)
Ghosting has become a prevalent issue in both friendships and dating, leaving people feeling confused, rejected, and hurt. In this episode of Changing Minds, I dive deep into the phenomenon of ghosting, exploring the reasons behind it and how to handle the emotional aftermath. From online dating to the silent treatment, we discuss the normalizing of this behavior and its impact on our mental well-being. I’ll explore strategies for self-awareness, self-compassion, and finding closure when faced with the haunting experience of being ghosted. https://www.changingminds.net/ owenfitzpatrick.com/newsletter/

Why people fall for stuff (and HOW NOT TO)
On this episode of Changing Minds I explore a captivating subject – why do we sometimes fall for scams, get duped, or find ourselves believing in things that defy reason and most importantly, how not to. It's a puzzling aspect of human behavior, and I'll unravel the inner workings of our minds, shedding light on the mechanisms that lead us to say "yes" when we should say "no." I’ll explore these cognitive intricacies and dive into how to protect ourselves from falling into such traps.
