TMB81 - Brian Sachetta - Get Out of Your Head: Evolution, Panic, & Emotional Freedom
Description
In this episode of The Mental Breakthrough (TMB81), I sit down with Brian Sachetta, author of the Get Out of Your Head series, to explore how our brains—still wired for survival on the African savanna—struggle to navigate modern life. We unpack the evolutionary roots of anxiety, how our ancient threat detection systems misfire in today’s world, and what it really means to “get out of your head.”
Brian shares two pivotal panic attack experiences from his teens that shaped his understanding of fear and inspired his work in mental health. We dive into the difference between resisting emotions and allowing them to pass, how exposure therapy can rewire anxious patterns, and why honest conversations can radically shift anxiety in relationships.
Whether your anxiety shows up before a big date, a public speech, or an important meeting, this conversation blends neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and practical wisdom to help you live alongside your mind—more wisely and more freely.
