In this conversation, we explore the psychological battles faced by elite performers, the relentless pressure to succeed, and the mental challenges that come with operating at the highest levels. We discuss how anxiety, panic, and the fear of losing control can manifest physically, even in the world's top performers.

We also examine emerging treatments that are reshapingmental health care, including ketamine-assisted therapy and ibogaine research, and discuss how advances in neuroscience are changing our understanding of brain chemistry, resilience, and recovery.

Finally, we dive into the psychology behind social media, where the pursuit of likes, views, and validation can become an unhealthy obsession. We explore the fine line between the drive to win and destructive perfectionism, how torecognize when ambition becomes delusion, and why maintaining realistic expectations is essential for long-term success and mental well-being.
