You're Not in Control of Your Behavior (Here's Why)
Saturday, 4 April, 2026
J. Eric Oliver is a professor of political science at the University of Chicago and the author of How to Know Yourself: The Art and Science of Discovering Who You Really Are. His work blends political science, psychology, and philosophy to explore how we form beliefs, construct identity, and often misunderstand our own behavior.In this episode of the Mindful Movement Podcast, I sit down with Eric to explore what it actually means to know yourself. We get into how language shapes identity, why the “self” may be better understood as an evolving system rather than something fixed, and how much of what we call free will is influenced by habit and environment. We also talk about consciousness as an active process, the role of pain as a signal, and what it looks like to better understand the internal systems driving your behavior.Connect with Eric at jericolive.comJoin Sara and Les in Boone, NC in April 2026 The Deep Unwind RetreatCheck Out the New YouTube Channel Here1:1 SessionsPERSONALIZED HYPNOTHERAPY, TRANSFORMATIONAL COACHING, OR MOVEMENT COACHING ---------------------------------------------Buy Sara's New Book Here!Please give a review and let the community know what you think!Thanks so much for all of your support!With gratitude,Les and Sara_________________________________________________________Some of our Favorite Affiliates...Sweat it out with an Infrared Sauna from SunlightenThe Apollo Use Discount Code: MINDFULSleep Well on these Grounding Mats from Ultimate LongevityOur Sponsors:* Check out Time4Learning: https://www.time4learning.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
