What if fear is not your enemy — but the cheat code you’ve been ignoring all along?
What if what’s been holding you back is actually pointing exactly to your next level?
In this episode of Gamechanger, we dive deep into fear, anxiety, and mindset — pulling back the veil on how fear runs your life, how it shows up in your career and leadership, and how you can turn it into an ally rather than a jailer.
The science and physiology of fear: what’s happening in your brain and body when fear hijacks you
Why today’s fears are less about lions — and more about social survival, rejection, and not being enough
How understanding your own fears gives you X-ray vision into others’ fears — unlocking compassion and also strategic power
The business & leadership side: how fear shapes decisions, stifles innovation, or becomes a tool in culture
The myth of living completely fearless — and why zero fear often equals pathology
Practical techniques and exercises for awareness, grounding, self-dialogue, and small actions to reprogram your relationship with fear
Every person you meet is carrying a shadow of fear. Even the most confident CEO fears failure. The artist hesitates. The leader second-guesses. The moment you get acquainted with your own fear, you start seeing the hidden motivations of others — which means more compassion, more boundary intelligence, and more strategic clarity.
Fear doesn’t go away. But when you stop treating it like an intruder and start reading it like a compass — it becomes one of your greatest teachers.

Why do we love villains so much? 🦹♀️🖤
From Darth Vader to Loki, from Wanda Maximoff to the complex anti-heroes of today’s media—our culture is shifting. Once upon a time, heroes were polished, perfect, and “good”… while villains were flat, evil, and easy to hate. But now? We empathize with them. We admire them. Sometimes, we even want to be them.
In this episode of Gamechanger, I dive deep into the psychology of villains—both the ones on screen and the ones we carry inside ourselves.
🎧 Why Listen?
If you’ve ever felt torn between being “the good one” and secretly wanting to break free… if you’ve admired villains for their unapologetic power… if you’ve wondered why being “good” feels so exhausting—this episode is for you.
It’s not about glorifying evil. It’s about understanding the complexity of being human:
✨ light and dark,
✨ hero and villain,
✨ ego and shadow.
Because the truth is:
💡 Being good might keep you liked… but being whole will set you free.
👉 Hit play, step into the shadows, and maybe… embrace the villain in you.
🚨 Feeling lost in hustle culture—or stuck chasing goals that don’t click? This episode is your reset. We dive into the science of purpose, burnout, and brain chemistry, then flip the script with ancient wisdom—from sankalpa to dharma to Tao. Why do some goals drain you and others light you up? Get ready to challenge the "why," reclaim your what for, and realign with what truly makes you come alive.
The future: a source of hope, anxiety, ambition—and endless obsession. In this episode, we explore our uniquely human ability to imagine what’s next, and why it drives everything from innovation to existential dread. Blending neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and myth, we unpack forecasting, manifestation, decision paralysis, and the illusion of control. Because if the future is unwritten… who’s holding the pen?
Why do some people leap while others freeze? In this episode, Anna dives deep into the psychology and neuroscience of risk. From dopamine to loss aversion, from Nassim Taleb to Tarot, we explore what really drives risky behavior—and how culture, identity, and survival instincts all shape our decisions. This is your guide to understanding (and mastering) the thrill, fear, and power of risk.
Some rules are made to be broken—but not all. In this sharp, soulful episode, Anna unpacks how to rebel strategically without burning the whole system down. From childhood conditioning to corporate conformity, we explore how rules shape us—and how to unshape them. You’ll learn when rule-breaking is brave... and when it’s just self-sabotage. This is for the rebels who want results, not chaos.
Every legend starts with a risk—and so does this podcast. In this bold opening episode, host Anna introduces Gamechanger by embracing the archetype of the Fool: the sacred beginner who steps into the unknown without a map, but with a mission. Expect hot takes on Daniel Kahneman, the Dunning-Kruger effect, tarot, and the power of myth in marketing and mindset. If you're on the edge of a new chapter, this one's for you.
