Intro to Antifragility Psychology: Nassim Taleb and the Psychological Research
In this episode, Dr. Nick Holton walks you through the overlapping worlds of antifragility and psychology research. Dr. Holton discusses the mission of the Antifragile Academy and how it aligns with Nassim Nicholas Taleb's original work on antifragility, but he also takes it a step further. Throughout the segment, Dr. Holton explores the six key themes of antifragility according to Taleb, but also how those show up in the psychological literature, including: the barbell approach, skin in the game, optionality, via negativa, trial and error, and awareness. These themes map over to well-being, resilience, and performance psychology, and we detail the ongoing research efforts at TAA to further understand and leverage antifragility on a psychological level. If you're interested in unlocking your full potential, developing mental fortitude, and thriving in the face of adversity, this episode is a must-listen. Stay tuned for more insights and discussions on antifragility and its implications for human flourishing.
