I am very honored to have Dr. Michael E. Silverman on Journey to Self this week!

About My Guest:
Dr. Silverman is the Co-Director of the Division of Cognitive and Behavioral Neurology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City and is also an Assistant Professor in Psychiatry at the school as well. He has worked extensively with mood changing disorders and was the first to publish the brain responses related to postpartum depression. He maintains a private practice on Park Avenue where he works with unusually successful individuals including professions athletes, entertainers, entrepreneurs and business executives.

In Unleash Your Dreams, Dr. Silverman examines how our deepest fears can cloud our judgment and affect our behavior when we don’t even know it. What scares us most, he reveals, is often the thing that we profess to want but can’t have. This groundbreaking book introduces a practical three-step program to help you confront your fears head-on by asking the tough questions about who you really are, what you’re afraid of, and what you really want.

Citing numerous dramatic stories from his own clinical practice, which includes professional ath-letes and performers as well as average men and women, Dr. Silverman explores the many ways in which we undermine our efforts to achieve happiness. He then shows you how to identify your own dreams, target the underlying ambivalence that may be holding you back, and conquer the fears you must overcome to realize your true destiny.

———-———–Show Note———————

This was a informative show.  Dr. Silverman talked about his book and the differences between fear of failure and fear of success.  As he explained the fear of failure is not taking the risks in your life that may lead to your dreams.  The fear of success is not getting where you want to go as you are going after your dreams or goals.  In his book discusses how people can get through their fears to have the future that they want.

Dr. Silverman and I also talked about postpartum depression - an area that he has spend time researching.  I discussed the issue of the negative stigma that is still attached to postpartum depression and Dr. Silverman filled us in on what some of research has discovered about it.
