Clinical psychologist Dr. Slammon joins Pete on this episode to discuss the phrase “Event + Response = Outcome.” Dr. Bill highlights that while you can’t always control events, you can control how you respond to them. Your response—not the event itself—ultimately determines the outcome you experience. This emphasizes personal responsibility and emotional discipline, shifting focus from blame to choice. In essence, it’s a mindset formula for resilience, growth, and effective decision-making in unpredictable circumstances.
