Biographical Note: I've had the dubious honor of meeting many psychiatrists and therapists, but nobody has had a bigger impact on the way I see the human psyche than Paul Conti. He conveys his deep understanding of the human brain and trauma in a way that disarms the ego and leaves you with no other option than to understand and love yourself. Often learning about yourself and your trauma can make you feel even more overwhelmed and hopeless, but Dr Conti focuses on achievable solutions and healing methods so you can actually move forward living a meaningful, conscious and, I'll say it, FUN, life. -- Whitney Cummings, actress, comedian, writer, producer, director, podcasterReview Quotes: Sincere and science-based, Dr. Conti's action-oriented frameworks have had a profound impact on me. Optimizing your mental health should be a top priority, and this book is chock-a-block with all his paradigm-shifting tools to get you there. If you aspire to live a more connected, authentic and meaningful life, this is the must read you have been waiting for. -- Rich Roll, bestselling author, wellness and plant-based nutrition advocate and host of The Rich Roll Podcast Review Quotes: Paul was a great help to me when I really needed it. I was able to see myself with new insight, grounded to the real challenges in my life, but not jumping over everything that is going right in me. Together we discovered new ideas to counter unfair beliefs that did not withstand the challenge of compassion and wisdom. I also learned new tools to help me find better health and happiness day in and day out. I have more power over my life, and a better ability to harness the generative drive that fuels me forward! -- Jonathan Davis, lead vocalist of Korn, songwriter, visual artist Review Quotes: Dr. Paul Conti had me with one simple question: "What's going right?" At a time when so many of us are consumed by what's going wrong, he offers a compassionate and hopeful shift in perspective--one that has stayed with me personally for years. I have known Paul as my doctor, mentor, and friend, and the steady, generous voice in these pages is exactly the one that has helped so many people, myself included. This book is both practical and profound. It reminds us that growth begins not by focusing on what is broken, but by recognizing the strengths already within us. What's Going Right? is a rare and uplifting guide for anyone seeking a more grounded, meaningful, and fulfilling life. I am honored to endorse it. -- Stephanie von Bismarck, child rights advocate, author, speaker, podcasterReview Quotes: Dr. Conti possesses a rare capacity to listen not only to words, but to what exists beneath them -- an ability that defines both his practice and his writing. This book carries that same attentive presence. It moves with care through the inner territories we often avoid, offering language for unspoken pain and illumination where understanding has been absent. In doing so, it reflects the depth of his experience and stands as an invitation to engage with honesty, compassion, and hope. Understanding the human mind can be a complex journey, shaped by cultural, religious, mystical, political, and social forces. These influences often mask expression within a wide and intricate spectrum of patterns and meanings. With remarkable mastery, Dr. Conti is able to decipher this language, guiding people to perceive what they need but may be unwilling -- or unprepared -- to see. Through a deeply humane gentleness, he fosters healing, resilience, and the strength to move forward. -- Simone Cosac Naify, artist, writer, publisher, attorney, human rights advocateReview Quotes: Dr. Conti's ability to empower people beyond those he is able to meet was strongly present in his first book, Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic. This second book, What's Going Right, promises to amplify his impact, and extended it to a much wider audience. It is a self-help guide to understanding yourself and creating your own healthy mental health. This includes approaching many of the most common mental health issues with self-awareness, reflectiveness, and practical routes to change. My guess is that this book will become required reading not just for patients and their therapists, but for people in search of a happier and healthier life. -- Bernard Kruger, MD, Comprehensive Physician, Oncologist, Cofounder of Sollis Health Publisher Marketing: "A peerless mental health guide that belongs in every home." ―Andrew D. Huberman, PhD, professor of neurobiology, Stanford School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab Podcast. This affirming book from world-renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Paul Conti, offers a paradigm-shifting approach to optimizing mental health, offering readers a proven way towards a joyful life--based on the popular series on Andrew Huberman's podcast. More than one in five US adults are living with a mental illness. Since 2010, adults ages eighteen to twenty-five have experienced a 139 percent increase in anxiety. For all of the increasing and well-intended mental health resources at our immediate disposal, we could easily ask where we are going wrong. Yet, Dr. Paul Conti wants to know, "what's going right?" Backed by celebrities and esteemed colleagues such as Lady Gaga, Mel Robbins, and Kim Kardashian, Dr. Conti poses that the key to embracing this new narrative is tapping into our often ignored and long over-looked generative drive, the primary factor that's already going right in each of us. The generative drive helps you get things done, solve problems creatively, help others and feel connected to something larger than yourself. When activated, it brings you peace, contentment, and delight. With Dr. Conti's notorious straightforward sincerity, he shares the exact method he uses on his patients and celebrity clients to help them tap into their generative drives including:
