We now have access to more information at our fingertips than ever before. YouTube videos, podcasts, audiobooks -- all of these forms of media have allowed us to consume information faster than ever, but we still face the challenge of retaining this information. In this episode, we will break down scientifically proven methods to retain more information and improve recall. To do this we are joined by two memory specialists. The first is Scott Crabtree, the Chief Happiness Officer at Happy Brain Science, a company that strives to improve happiness for professionals and organizations using neuroscience. In addition to Crabtree, we are also joined by Marissa Blaszko, a polyglot that speaks 6 languages and the founder of the website Relearn a Language. Crabtree specializes in the science of learning, memory, and happiness. He shares with us the reason why we forget what we are looking for when passing from one room to another, why emotions are important to recall information, and how chocolate can help with memory. From our discussion with Blaszko, you will learn the two secret weapons of polyglots, some of the most out-of-date myths about language learning that annoy her the most, and how you can create your own memory palace to store information. Moreover, Blaszko also explains what are Memory Championships and how listeners can apply the techniques of champions in their own lives.

Scott Crabtree, the founder of Happy Brain Science said, "According to the body of research on happiness, when you focus time and attention on your relationships, they improve, and that improves your happiness. You also improve your coping ability because you have more support. Bottom line: Warm relationships can fuel happiness more than any other single factor we have found,” he says.So when we prioritize people - the relationships we nurture, the partnerships we cultivate, the people we keep close - in work, play and everything in between, it weighs deeply on our overall happiness. The number one factor in our happiness is the quality of our relationships.Everyone's love and relationships look different but how we love with ourselves and the way we communicate with these relationships make all the differences. Across this multi-episode arc, Oko and Lalitha are going to dive really deep into everything they can on relationships - in all it's shapes, forms and feelings.
