DIRECTOR'S CUT: Psychology of a Hero: ALADDIN (Patreon)

How do become comfortable with being yourself? How do you quit negative self-talk?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are taking a look at Aladdin’s journey from insecurity and low self-worth to self-acceptance and integrity. They talk about Aladdin’s negative self-talk and why he keeps hurting people. Jonathan explains why insecurity makes us unable to accept love from others. Aladdin does this a lot! And Alan relates to this a lot... send him praise in comments! And they can’t watch Aladdin without talking about Robin Williams’s unforgettable performance as the Genie.
