Stop Being Realistic: The Science Behind Big Goals

In this episode of Planet Em, Emily breaks down why being “delusional” is actually a pro-level brain hack. She shares how delusional belief helped her build the life she has now, why realistic thinking is usually just fear in disguise, and how the brain responds when you normalize big goals instead of shrinking them. Emily explains the three beliefs that shape your ability to manifest: belief in yourself, belief in the possibility of your goals, and belief in your worthiness. She also dives into the neuroscience behind dopamine, motivation, confidence, and why your brain sabotages you when a dream doesn’t feel “safe.” This episode covers identity work, subconscious fears, confirmation bias, the “algorithm” of your brain, and why becoming the version of you who achieves your goals is what actually collapses the timeline. If you’re ready to think bigger, normalize your delusional dreams, and rewire your brain for success, this one’s for you.
