You're more accomplished than you used to be. The doubt didn't go away. Three a.m. replays. Did I say the right thing. Why did I do that. Should have handled that differently. The voice doesn't care how much you've achieved. In this episode, Dr. Aziz unpacks why self-doubt persists no matter how successful you become. The physicians twenty years in still secretly questioning themselves at the end of every workday. The CEOs and founders who look polished and confident on the outside but live with a constant headwind of doubt on the inside. This episode covers: Why more achievement doesn't fix self-doubt (and the strategy almost everyone tries first) Why doubt is the default, the path of least resistance for the human nervous system The strange way doubt gives you certainty and comfort A 20-year-old client convinced he'd already missed his chance, and what that conversation reveals The reframe that breaks doubt's hold: the opposite of doubt isn't certainty Discover your approval type.

There's a conversation you know you need to have. You've thought about it. You've maybe rehearsed it. The moment comes, and you don't say anything. The moment passes. It feels, for a second, like you dodged something dangerous. In this episode, Dr. Aziz breaks down the Avoider, one of the four ways your nervous system tries to keep you safe when disapproval is on the table. He shares ten years of his own life lived in this pattern, including the moment he realized he was experiencing every relationship as a trap he needed to escape from. This episode covers: Why this isn't a willpower problem (and why beating yourself up about it makes it worse) The two layers of the Avoider: the front-end avoidance most people call shyness, and the deeper avoidance that quietly destroys relationships Lonely amongst people: the most painful cost of avoiding what needs to be said What actually changes the pattern, and why the standard just push through advice keeps failing Discover your approval type.

Umar Aziz, Partner, Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel at DG Partners, joins Scott Brown to share lessons from a career that nearly took him into shipping brokerage before a major life event brought him back to law.In this episode of Lessons I Learned in Law, Umar reflects on how personal circumstances shaped the start of his legal career, including his decision to return to Clifford Chance after initially turning down his training contract. His first lesson is that there is more to life than work. Drawing on his own experiences of loss, family responsibility and high-pressure legal environments, he discusses the importance of building a full life outside the job — and why excellence matters across work, family, friendships and personal pursuits.His second lesson comes from advice he received early in his career: learn from the best bits of the lawyers around you. Umar explains why every lawyer you work with has something worth copying — and something worth leaving behind.His final lesson challenges the idea that lawyers should always try to “win” every point. Whether negotiating with clients, managing internal teams or building long-term business relationships, Umar argues that sustainable success comes from fairness, trust and mutual respect — not squeezing every last drop out of the other side.Along the way, Umar discusses moving from litigation into funds, the transition from private practice into DG Partners, his COO and GC role, and why full-contact karate helps him stay disciplined, present and switched off from work. This episode is brought to you in partnership with Wordsmith AI — the legal AI platform built specifically for in-house teams.Guest RecommendationsSport: Full-contact karate Sauce of choice: Buffalo or curry sauce Resources & Links Mentioned in This EpisodeRegister your interest in joining The Lodge In-house Legal Community: https://bit.ly/TheLodgebyHB Heriot Brown: https://heriotbrown.com/ Wordsmith AI: https://www.wordsmith.ai/ Legal Engineering Project Application form: https://wordsmith.fillout.com/legalengproject Listen to the PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/4 YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/Connect with Heriot Brownhttps://heriotbrown.com/ About Heriot Brown: At Heriot Brown, we help lawyers find fulfilment in their careers.

Your boss doesn't quite make eye contact in a meeting. You text someone and they don't get back to you. And it sticks. The whole rest of the day, some part of you can't put it down. In this episode, Dr. Aziz walks through the wheel of life. A metaphor he uses with clients to show why your nervous system is still looking up to people the way you did at five years old, even when you're forty. Even when those people are old. Even when they're not actually that powerful anymore. Even when, sometimes, you don't even like them. This episode covers: Why telling yourself to just be more confident never quite works The wheel of life metaphor: how the developmental wiring that was appropriate at five gets stuck running at thirty-five The equation underneath all of it (approval equals self-worth) and why it has to be broken Two pathways for reclaiming the authority you've been giving away Discover your approval type.

Geçtiğimiz 29 Mayıs günü “belde-i tayyibe”nin feth-i mübîninin sene-i devriyesini bir kez daha şükür ve gururla idrak ettik. Yahya Kemal'in ifadesiyle “Sene-i devriyeler, takvim oyunlarıdır. Ama yine insanın muhayyilesine zevk verir” (Aziz İstanbul, s. 62).

You walk into a room and your guard goes up. Not because anyone said anything. Not because anyone is even looking at you yet. Just the room. If this is you, you've probably called it social anxiety, or being too sensitive, or I just care too much what people think. It's none of those things on their own. In this episode, Dr. Aziz unpacks what's actually been installed in you over the last twenty years, and why uninstalling the apps doesn't fix it. There's a specific equation running underneath the chronic feeling of being evaluated, and once you can see it, the just stop caring what people think advice stops looking like an answer. He shares two stories that show how the wiring gets installed and how it propagates. One from when he was eleven, sitting in a Supercuts, flipping through a magazine he'd never normally read. One from last week, with his ten and twelve-year-old kids and a basketball trick shot. The two stories together show why this isn't a personality flaw and isn't fixed by uninstalling the apps. It's the cultural arrangement we've all been swimming in, and the equation it installed inside you decades ago. Discover your approval type.

Aziz says his brother's death sent him to his own prison where all he wanted was revenge.Maoz Inon's parents were killed by Hamas on October 7th.

What we are seeking is peace and equality.”On Free State today Aziz Abu Sarah and Maoz Inon talk to us about their extraordinary friendship and their determination to find a way to peace in the Middle East.They speak about their attempt to understand each other as Israelis and Palestinians and why there must be justice and equality as well as peace.

Welcome to episode 333 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Aziz Aghayev, founder of Flowlyst, a company focused on automation and AI training. Aziz works with organizations to help leaders and staff use AI tools to streamline processes, reduce manual work, and improve operational efficiency. The conversation focuses on how law firms can use AI to automate internal processes, from creating procedure manuals to handling repetitive administrative tasks.

Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah lost his brother to Israeli authorities in the second Intifada. Israeli Jew Maoz Inon lost both his parents to Hamas on October 7th. In their book,The Future Is Peace, these two travel guides to Israel/Palestine and lifelong peace activists, take readers on a journey across their holy bloodstained land. They share the mythic, political, and personal history that divides but also binds them and their peoples. This episode, recorded in front of an audience at a LiveTalksLA event in April, punctuated often by laughter, makes clear their love for each other and the land they share as well as their absolute conviction that dialogue and peace must and will prevail.

I sat down with Aziz from CoinFund at Consensus Miami and walked away more bullish than ever. Aziz went from selling RuneScape gold for Bitcoin to becoming an investor at one of the most respected crypto venture funds in the space. In this episode, he breaks down exactly why he believes we are heading into a stablecoin super cycle, why decentralized AI is about to have its moment, and why quantum computing is a bigger threat to crypto than most people realise. He also shares what he actually looks for in founders, which portfolio companies have him most excited right now, and why the worst thing you can do is sit on the sidelines. If you are building something in Web3 or thinking about it, this conversation is for you. Disclaimer:Nothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

You knew exactly what you wanted to say. Then something softer came out instead. It happens at work, with your partner, with your parents. Every time, you walk away wondering why you keep doing this. In this episode, Dr. Aziz walks through what's actually happening in that gap between what you meant to say and what came out. He shares a real client case where the version of his client sitting in the office and the version of him in the meeting were two completely different people. The gap between those two voices is the entire teaching. This episode covers: Why telling yourself to stop being a people-pleaser never quite works The specific pattern running below your conscious mind when you soften, hedge, or hold back The three costs you're probably not adding up, including one showing up in your body What actually changes the pattern, and what doesn't Discover your approval type.

Innovation spans many areas, and compliance professionals need not only to be ready for it but also to embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom visits with Noor Aziz, a Saudi Arabia–based governance, risk, and compliance professional with extensive ISO lead auditor credentials, internal audit and controls experience, and a growing focus on AI governance. Noor argues that effective compliance must be practical and business-friendly—clear ownership, escalation, accountability, and evidence—so it still functions under operational pressure rather than becoming bypassed. She emphasizes leadership commitment, culture shaped by observed behavior, and integrated GRC to reduce silos that create duplication, inconsistent reporting, and “governance fatigue.” On AI, she frames governance as a board-level issue because adoption is outpacing accountability, creating future scrutiny around oversight, traceability, and defensibility; she notes, “capability without governance eventually creates instability.” She recommends change management, micro-learning, and ongoing communications, and concludes that governance is organizational infrastructure, not administrative overhead. Key highlights: Integrating Controls, Audit, and Risk Breaking Down GRC Silos Why AI Governance Is Board Level Culture When Nobody's Watching Training That Actually Works: Microlearning and Ongoing Comms Why Frameworks Fail in Execution Maturing Governance for Business Value Resources: Connect with Noor Aziz on LinkedIn Innovation in Compliance was recently ranked Number 4 in Risk Management by 1,000,000 Podcasts.

You can explain your work to a friend over dinner. In front of your boss, the same words fall apart. Most people call this social anxiety, or I just lack confidence in those situations. It isn't either of those things. In this episode, Dr. Aziz unpacks what's actually firing when you freeze around certain people. The cyberball research from UCLA. The reason your wiring treats social rejection like physical pain. And the strange phenomenon where you need approval from people you don't even like.

You knew exactly what you wanted to say. Then something softer came out instead. There's a specific reason this keeps happening, and it isn't a confidence problem. In this episode, Dr. Aziz breaks down the four ways people override themselves under social pressure: the Diplomat, the Avoider, the Fixer, and the Performer. Most people call this people-pleasing, being too nice, or social anxiety. Those labels aren't wrong. They just don't explain why it keeps happening for decades, even after reading the books and trying the techniques.

Maoz Inon lost his parents on October 7th. They were in their safe room, 200 meters from the Gaza border wall, when Hamas came. Aziz Abu Sarah lost his brother — the person who raised him — after he was tortured in an Israeli prison during the First Intifada. Two days after October 7th, Aziz wrote Maoz a letter. Maoz wrote back. That exchange became a friendship, a journey across the Holy Land, and now a New York Times bestselling book: "The Future Is Peace." This is not a polemic. It is not a policy paper. It is an invitation — to sit with grief that belongs to both sides, to doubt the narratives handed to you, and to imagine that the conflict will end. Because, as Maoz says, it will. The only question is when and how many more lives are lost before it does. Yonit and Jonathan talk with them about Hamas, religious extremism, on what peace would actually look like, on whether Israelis have any reason to trust again.    Watch on Youtube: https://youtu.be/0nJ3q4kvVPs ⏱ CHAPTERS: [00:00] Intro — who are Aziz and Maoz?

There's an invisible pressure pushing you to not be yourself. It doesn't show up as a dramatic moment. It's death by a thousand paper cuts. The meeting where you stayed quiet. The conversation where you chose what they'd want to hear. The thing you didn't say. The version of you that doesn't quite get to come out. In this first episode of Authentic Confidence, Dr. Aziz introduces the show, the framework, and what's actually running underneath the chronic feeling of not being fully yourself. You'll discover the false choice most people don't realize they're caught inside, the difference between the social anxiety cage and the "nice cage" Dr. Aziz lived in for years after escaping the first one, why authentic confidence isn't a personality trait but a practice, and a preview of the four approval patterns coming next week.

Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon forged a bond when the world expected them to be enemies. Aziz, a Palestinian, lost his brother after he was arrested and tortured by the IDF. Maoz, an Israeli, lost both of his parents to Hamas militants on October 7. In the wake of tragedy, the lifelong peace activists chose to fight for peace because everything other than peace has failed. In The Future Is Peace, Sarah and Inon walk the physical and emotional landscapes of their intertwined histories – from the ruins of Gaza's border communities to Jerusalem's winding stone alleyways, from the hills of Galilee to Bethlehem's concrete separation barrier. In conversation with Sixth & I's Senior Rabbi, Aaron Potek. This program was held on April 16, 2026. Thanks to our promotional partner, New Jewish Narrative. Watch on YouTube.

After 12 years and over 600 episodes, Shrink for the Shy Guy is reaching its final installment. But this isn't an ending—it is a massive evolution. Starting next Wednesday, this same podcast feed will transform into a brand-new show: Authentic Confidence with Dr. Aziz. In this special transition episode, Dr. Aziz reflects on the journey that began in 2013. What started as a mission to help people overcome classic social anxiety has expanded into a much larger movement. He explores how shyness, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome, and perfectionism are all "branches of the same tree," rooted in a single core issue: The Approval Trap.

While the events of October 7, 2023, may have pushed some Israelis and Palestinians apart, Maoz Inon and Aziz Abu Sarah say they've become like brothers. When Maoz lost his parents in the attacks, Aziz, who himself lost a brother during the first intifada, reached out in a gesture of friendship. Their extraordinary story and the deep optimism they feel for the future is told in a new book, "The Future is Peace: A Shared Journey Across the Holy Land". They spoke to FRANCE 24's Haxie Meyers-Belkin.

Do you ever feel like you've done years of "work" on yourself, only to wake up and find you're facing the exact same fear, hesitation, or self-doubt you thought you'd finally conquered? In this episode, Dr. Aziz digs into the frustrating reality of why our core struggles seem to have a "boomerang" effect. We often spend our energy pruning the leaves of our problems—fixing surface-level habits or social techniques—while leaving the deep root system of our identity completely untouched. This hidden psychological architecture is often designed to keep you safe by keeping you small, effectively pulling you back into familiar patterns the moment you try to expand. If you feel like you're running in circles, it's not because you're failing; it's because your nervous system is still prioritizing protection over power. Dr. Aziz reveals how to identify the hidden "safety payoff" of your recurring struggle and how to fundamentally rewrite the inner rules that keep these patterns alive. Learn how to stop treating the symptoms and start transforming the source so you can finally move forward without being pulled back.

R&D teams are starting to advance AI capabilities faster than they can translate them into measurable business value, creating mounting friction between scientific progress and operational reality. In this episode, Aziz Nazha, Global Head of AI Innovations Institute at Incyte Pharmaceuticals, examines how culture, talent, infrastructure, and expectation‑setting determine whether AI meaningfully improves drug discovery and development. He highlights the practical shifts required — from redesigning workflows to disciplined upskilling and targeted validation cycles — to ensure AI adoption accelerates cycle times rather than getting stalled by organizational bottlenecks.

What if the real reason you hold back, soften what you say, or carefully rehearse how you come across isn't actually about confidence at all? What if, underneath it all, there's a deeper fear - that if people saw the real you, they simply wouldn't like you? In this episode, Dr. Aziz explores the hidden fear that quietly drives people-pleasing, overthinking, and the constant effort to present yourself the “right way.” Many people live with an unspoken belief that something about them is fundamentally not enough - like they've been dealt a bad hand in life. From that place, it becomes natural to compensate: improving, performing, polishing a persona, and trying to become someone who will finally be accepted. But as Dr. Aziz explains, this strategy creates a painful paradox. When approval comes, it often brings anxiety and imposter syndrome. When it doesn't, it seems to confirm the belief that something is wrong with you. Either way, the deeper desire we all have - to feel truly seen, known, and connected - remains unfulfilled. Drawing from years of coaching and insights from his Not Nice Live workshop, Dr. Aziz reveals how this pattern forms and why it keeps people stuck in masks and performances instead of authentic connection. He shows that the real path to belonging isn't through perfecting yourself, but through taking the courageous risk to be more real. You'll discover why trying to be who you think others want can never create the belonging you crave and how genuine confidence begins to grow when you allow yourself to be seen as the imperfect, evolving human you truly are. Tune in to learn how small, everyday moments of authenticity - sharing a preference, setting a boundary, speaking honestly - can begin to dismantle the fear of rejection and open the door to deeper confidence, freedom, and real connection.

What do job interviews, first dates, presentations, and social gatherings all have in common? They're all situations where someone could disapprove of you — and your nervous system knows it. In this episode, Dr. Aziz breaks down the single pattern running underneath all social anxiety and performance anxiety: the fear of disapproval. He explains why your brain fills uncertainty with doom predictions, why those predictions feel so convincing, and why the solution isn't about becoming more impressive — it's about building your capacity to be in the unknown. This episode is part of a series of new discoveries Dr. Aziz has been making about how our relationship with approval shapes everything — our confidence, our conversations, our careers, and our relationships. More on that in the coming episodes.

This special episode features segments from our recent workshop, Collective Tides and Self-Actualization, co-facilitated by Renee Sills and Aziz Bisanz. This workshop was offered on February 20, 2026, the day of the era-defining Saturn-Neptune conjunction, the influences of which extend throughout 2026 and beyond. If you're interested in working more deeply with this important astrology, you can access the full recording of the workshop OR join our new monthly series, An Initiation into Spiritual Warriorship, facilitated by Aziz alongside guest facilitators from Minneapolis, Palestine, and other sites of resistance around the world. You can drop in for the upcoming session on Tuesday, March 24 or dive in for the whole series. ✨✨✨UPCOMING AT EMBODIED ASTROLOGY:

In this episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, Dr. Aziz explores what happens the moment you stop being natural in a conversation and start managing yourself instead. If you've ever felt yourself drift into performance mode—monitoring your words, second-guessing how you sound, and trying to control how you're coming across—this episode will help you understand exactly why that happens. Dr. Aziz breaks down how social anxiety can turn conversations into a subtle form of self-surveillance, where your attention leaves the present moment and gets trapped in self-criticism, overthinking, and trying to “perform” the right version of yourself. You'll discover why this pattern makes it harder to know what to say, harder to connect, and harder to feel truly seen and known by others. This episode is a powerful invitation to recognize performance mode for what it is: not your personality, but a fear response. And once you can see it clearly, you can begin to choose something different.

What if the real reason you hold back, soften what you say, or carefully rehearse how you come across isn't actually about confidence at all? What if, underneath it all, there's a deeper fear—that if people saw the real you, they simply wouldn't like you? In this episode, Dr. Aziz explores the hidden fear that quietly drives people-pleasing, overthinking, and the constant effort to present yourself the “right way.” Many people live with an unspoken belief that something about them is fundamentally not enough—like they've been dealt a bad hand in life.

Drawing from years of coaching and insights from his Not Nice Live workshop, Dr. Aziz reveals how this pattern forms and why it keeps people stuck in masks and performances instead of authentic connection. He shows that the real path to belonging isn't through perfecting yourself, but through taking the courageous risk to be more real. You'll discover why trying to be who you think others want can never create the belonging you crave—and how genuine confidence begins to grow when you allow yourself to be seen as the imperfect, evolving human you truly are. Tune in to learn how small, everyday moments of authenticity—sharing a preference, setting a boundary, speaking honestly—can begin to dismantle the fear of rejection and open the door to deeper confidence, freedom, and real connection.

Most people don't walk into conversations thinking they're trying to win approval. They believe they're simply being polite, agreeable, or easy to get along with. Yet beneath the surface, many people are unknowingly running a subtle pattern—constantly scanning others for signs that they're doing well, saying the right thing, or being liked. In this episode, Dr. Aziz explores what he calls “approval harvesting.” This is the unconscious habit of tracking other people's reactions—looking for smiles, laughter, nods, or praise—to determine whether you're okay. While it may seem harmless, this pattern can quietly turn conversations, social gatherings, dating, and even workplace interactions into performances where the goal becomes getting approval rather than expressing yourself. Through relatable examples—like walking into a dinner party and monitoring every reaction—Dr. Aziz shows how this internal “approval tracker” can create social anxiety, performance pressure, and a growing disconnection from your authentic self. Over time, you may start filtering, softening, or reshaping what you say just to keep yourself in the “good column” of others' reactions. At the root of this pattern lies a deeper equation many people unknowingly adopt: approval equals worth. When approval is present, you feel relief and validation. When it isn't, self-doubt and anxiety surge. This dynamic can drive people-pleasing, overthinking, and a constant effort to manage how others see you. Dr. Aziz invites you to step back and observe this pattern in your own life. Instead of criticizing yourself for it, you'll learn how to notice when approval harvesting appears—especially in uncertain social situations—and begin asking a powerful question: What would you do if your worth wasn't on the line? Tune in to discover how awareness of this hidden pattern can be the first step toward greater confidence, authenticity, and a deeper connection with others.
