In this episode, Dana is joined by Dr. Albert Bramante, a talent agent, performance coach, and Psychology professor who unpacks the hidden mental blocks holding creators back. Dr. Bramante shares his unique journey from studying the human mind to managing performing artists, revealing how he discovered a pattern of self-sabotage driven by deep-seated fears. He explains how subconscious beliefs, often formed in childhood, can manifest as career-stalling behaviors. Dr. Bramante offers powerful tools to overcome these hurdles, from the science behind “power poses” and NLP to the transformative potential of hypnotherapy and the non-negotiable importance of setting firm boundaries to prevent burnout.
