Embrace wrongness
In episode 296, I speak with MD, author and anger elimination expert, Mort Orman. He is an Internal Medicine doctor (50 yrs) and an anger elimination coach (40 yrs). He used to be super angry in his 20s and 30s, a lot like John McEnroe playing tennis. When he realised that, in many cases he was wrong, and started to embrace his wrongness, he finally discovered how to eliminate all anger problems, without anger management. Mort has had very little anger for past 40 years. Now he teaches people how to do the same. His approach to anger is different, powerful, and it works. It will be new information for almost everyone.

In this powerful episode of Embrace Wrongness, we sit down with Dr. Mort Orman, M.D.—an internal medicine physician and a pioneer in the field of anger and stress elimination. With over 40 years of experience and 23 books to his name, Dr. Orman doesn’t just talk about managing anger—he shows people how to eliminate it entirely.
Mort dealt with a lot of anger in his early life until he realised, in most cases, he was wrong. Consequently, he developed a simple process to eliminate anger permanently. Together, we explore the liberating idea of embracing wrongness—not as failure, but as a path to freedom. Mort shares how clinging to the need to be “right” fuels internal conflict, damages relationships, and keeps stress on a constant simmer. His evidence-based, no-nonsense approach challenges everything we think we know about handling stress.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why anger and stress are not emotional problems—but thinking problems.
- The dangerous myth of "managing" anger and what to do instead.
- How being wrong can be your greatest superpower for personal growth.
- The truth about internal causes of anger—and how to uproot them for good.
- Why traditional approaches like relaxation, breathing exercises, or medication only treat the symptoms.
- How Dr. Orman’s Ultimate Anger Elimination System has helped thousands, including professionals, clergy, and even the F.B.I.
Whether you're a high-performing professional, a leader under pressure, or someone looking for more peace in your personal life, this episode will challenge you to rethink what it means to be “right” and offer a roadmap to a more empowered, stress-free life.
