  • The Hidden Epidemic of High-Functioning Depression with Dr. Judith Joseph

    The Hidden Epidemic of High-Functioning Depression with Dr. Judith Joseph
    Apr 22 2025
    Are You Joyful… or Just Functioning? Most people don’t realize it—but there's a silent struggle happening behind the smiles and the schedules. Today, I sit down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a Columbia-trained psychiatrist and author of High Functioning: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy. We tackle something that I think is affecting more people than anyone talks about… high functioning depression. It's not in the "DSM"—but it’s very real. And if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel empty inside, you need to hear this. We talked about a condition called anhedonia—this sneaky, silent twin of depression that robs you of joy without making you collapse. It’s the part of depression that doesn’t get seen or treated because you’re still performing, still producing, still achieving. Dr. Judith broke down how traumas, even the little ones, can rewire the way we experience joy. And more importantly, she gave a way out. You don’t have to crash to get help. You don’t have to be broken to deserve healing. This episode isn’t just about naming the problem. It’s about owning your emotional truth, slowing down, and reclaiming the simple human experiences that actually fill you. Whether you’re a high achiever constantly “doing” or someone who feels like joy is always out of reach, this one’s for you. Judith’s “5 V’s” framework gives you real tools you can use every day—like planning your joy, validating your feelings, and choosing presence over performance. And let me tell you what stood out most. Joy is contagious! It spreads. To your kids, your spouse, your team. The more we access joy, the more we model it for those around us. This conversation hit home for me—and I think it will for you too. Key Takeaways: Why anhedonia is the overlooked symptom stealing your joy. The difference between happiness (an idea) and joy (an experience). The “5 V’s” system to help reclaim joy: Validation, Venting, Values, Vitals, Vision. How trauma—big or small—can lead to high functioning depression. Tools to help yourself or someone you love who’s silently struggling. The impact of hormonal changes on mental health, especially for women. A method to ground yourself daily and reduce anxiety: the 5-4-3-2-1 technique. Let’s not wait for the crash to start healing. You deserve joy. You just forgot how to feel it.

Visit https://growthday.com/ed. This show is sponsored by GrowthDay. Who's REALLY Driving Your Life? This story will make you rethink everything about control, identity, and the life you're building. This mashup episode is personal. It starts with me sharing a terrifying experience I had with my daughter Bella during a cab ride in Boston — a ride where we were completely out of control, at the mercy of someone else. That moment hit me hard because it wasn’t just about a crazy driver — it was a real metaphor for how many of us are living. I’m talking to you today about the reality that far too many people are sitting in the backseat of their own lives, letting fear, old stories, emotions, or even other people take the wheel. Then, I bring in a conversation with my dear friend Tony Robbins, and we talk about what it takes to truly take back control of your life. Tony reminds us that fear is physical, and courage isn’t the absence of fear — it’s doing it anyway. He breaks down how managing your emotional state and reconnecting to a compelling future changes everything. And I share what it means to build confidence by building a reputation with yourself — keeping the promises you make, even the small ones, especially the small ones. We cover the false beliefs that are holding you back — the lies that say you are your possessions, your accomplishments, what others say about you, or how you look. No, you are none of that. You are who you decide to be. I walk through the most common "cab drivers" people hand the wheel to: fear, emotions, childhood trauma, lack of belief — even imaginary opinions. But here's the truth: you and God are the only ones who should be in the driver's seat. The episode ends with real, practical steps — how to change your identity by adjusting the internal thermostat that sets the temperature for every result in your life. I break down how to use associations, immersion, and 30-day sprints to reset your beliefs. And I challenge you to do one thing: write a new story. One where you’re finally in control. Key Takeaways: - A wild Boston cab ride becomes the perfect metaphor for losing — and reclaiming — control of your life. - Why fear, emotions, and other people are the most common hidden “drivers” of your behavior. - Tony Robbins on managing your emotional state, building a compelling future, and shifting your physical state to beat fear. - How to build unshakable self-confidence by keeping promises to yourself. - The flawed beliefs that rob us of self-worth and the identity shift that changes everything. - The internal “thermostat” metaphor — and how to raise your standards in life, faith, business, and relationships. This isn’t just a motivational talk — it’s a wake-up call. If you’re ready to stop being a passenger in your life and finally grab the wheel, this one’s for you. Let’s step up, together.

    Change What You See, Change What You Get
    Apr 17 2025
    What if you started living like life was rigged in your favor? That’s the question I want you to wrestle with today. Because the lens you look through is shaping everything — your decisions, your joy, your results. In this Solo episode, I’m walking you through the truth that most people miss: Your life isn't defined by what happens to you — it's defined by how you see it. Your filter, your expectations, and your energy are creating your reality, whether you know it or not. We talk a lot about faith, hustle, and discipline — but today, I want you to start scanning your life for favor, not fear. I share the four life lenses that are quietly running your perspective — from living through history and memory to seeing life through dreams and imagination. I’ve lived on both sides of this. I’ve filtered for pain, for setbacks, for loneliness. But when I changed the lens — when I started walking through life expecting good things to happen — things began to shift. You’ll hear me share some of the most personal insights I’ve ever dropped on this show, from how confidence bends reality, to the way your energy becomes a magnet for the people and opportunities in your life. This isn’t just about mindset. It’s about becoming the person who runs toward pressure, who trains like an underdog, and lives with the heart of a champion. You’ve already come farther than you give yourself credit for. Now it’s time to move like someone who’s meant to win. And here’s the truth — you don’t need to fit in. You’re not one of the crowd. You were made to be different. You were born to stand out. So stop waiting to be seen. See yourself. Don’t underestimate your own power another day. This episode is a reminder of who you really are and what you’re really capable of. Key Takeaways: Your expectations shape your reality more than your circumstances. There are four lenses that shape how you experience life — most of us operate unconsciously. Confidence can actually bend reality — but so can self-doubt. Energy is magnetic — you draw in what you put out. The life you want begins when you stop underestimating yourself and start believing that great things are meant for you. Focus equals expansion: what you’re looking for is what you’ll find. Train like an underdog, but think like you’re world class. You don’t need to be understood — you need to be relentless about your purpose. Max out your lens. Max out your life. 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈 → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ← ➡️ INSTAGRAM ➡️FACEBOOK ➡️ LINKEDIN ➡️ X ➡️ WEBSITE Get my exclusive Monday Motivation training in GrowthDay, the world’s #1 app for advanced mindset and personal development.
