On this episode of "Insights," we explore the question, What makes you, you? First, we dig into the topic with our guests CNBC news anchor Bill Griffeth and author Paula Williams Madison, who share the surprising results they found while researching their family genetics. Madison's story takes us on a fascinating trip around the world—from New York to Jamaica to China, while Griffeth's story ends up uncovering a surprising family secret that one family member hoped would never be discovered. Later, we explore a different approach to what makes you you; Mindfulness, empathy and compassion. Are these characteristics something you're born with? Or are they something we can train ourselves to achieve? Stanford business school professor Dr. Leah Weiss explores research that shows mindfulness improves all the aspects of emotional intelligence-self awareness, self management, awareness of what is going on with the people around you—and how you manage your relationships, personally and professionally. How do you integrate mindfulness into your daily routine? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Host Scott Fisher and David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org, open the show.

Genealogical speaker Jill Morelli then takes a break from her summer genealogy research trip to talk to Fisher about our ancestors who were labeled "insane." Jill reviews the evolution of how the insane were viewed and how they were dealt with, even down to today. And what about their records? She'll fill you in on where to start looking and what to expect. Then, Tom Perry from TMCPlace.com returns to talk preservation.
