AROUND 6 A.M. on the morning of Sept. 9, 1942, Forest Service lookout Howard Gardner heard the sound of an approaching airplane. Peering out into the South Coast pre-dawn gloaming light, Gardner made out a small seaplane, heading toward him, flying low, circling. Showtime! This was what Gardner was here for, bundled up in the little Forest Service firewatch lookout shack atop Mt. Emily. Nine months into the Second World War, Gardner's duties had expanded a bit from what they had been a year before. Now he was looking not only for smoke from forest fires, but for enemy airplanes. And right then, that's exactly what he was looking at. (Brookings, Curry County; 1940s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/2402a-0907b.glovebox-bomb-031.634.html)

L'intelligence naturaliste, selon Howard Gardner, reflète une capacité à comprendre et à interagir avec le monde naturel, incluant les plantes, les animaux et les phénomènes environnementaux. Elle oriente les jeunes vers des métiers où la sensibilité à l'environnement et la connaissance de la nature sont valorisées, comme dans les domaines de la biologie, de l'écologie, ou de la gestion des ressources naturelles.✅ DANS CET ÉPISODE NOUS ABORDONS :Comment détecter l'intelligence naturaliste chez un enfant ou un adolescent, en observant sa passion pour la nature, les animaux et l'environnement.Comment développer cette intelligence à travers des activités comme l'observation de la nature, la création de jardins, ou l'implication dans des projets écologiques.Les métiers où l'intelligence naturaliste s'épanouit, tels que botaniste, vétérinaire, garde forestier, biologiste, ou ingénieur en environnement.

Y hoy se habla de un noveno tipo de inteligencia, que se ha propuesto llamar «existencial». En el pasaje que hoy nos ocupa, queda claro que Jesús espera que sus seguidores cultiven y desarrollen otro tipo de inteligencia que les permita comprender mejor lo relacionado con su vida espiritual. El apóstol Pablo ha comprendido muy bien lo que Jesús esperaba de sus discípulos, por lo que pide a Dios que conceda a los colosenses lo que él llama synesis pneumatike y que podemos traducir literalmente como «inteligencia espiritual» (Col. 1: 9).Los diccionarios definen la inteligencia en general como «la capacidad de entender o comprender». El profesor Gardner define la inteligencia práctica como «la capacidad de ordenar los pensamientos y coordinarlos con las acciones», y Daniel Goleman (1995), llamado «el padre de la inteligencia emocional», describe esta como «la capacidad de reconocer nuestros propios sentimientos y los de los demás, de motivarnos y de manejar de forma adecuada las relaciones».Según un famoso profesor de ética, la inteligencia espiritual es una facultad que pone en juego el desarrollo pleno de la persona más allá de cualquier obediencia religiosa determinada, respondiendo a nuestras necesidades universales íntimas de orden espiritual.» En contextos de anemia espiritual como en el que nuestro tiempo se encuentra, el desarrollo de la inteligencia espiritual abre horizontes nuevos e insospechados en el corazón mismo de la rutina diaria, de la inmediatez y del interés a corto plazo» (Francesc Torralba, Inteligencia espiritual [Barcelona: Plataforma Editorial, 2010]).La Biblia define la inteligencia espiritual como «el principio de la sabiduría» (Prov. 1:7), y como «temor de Dios» es decir, como la capacidad de escuchar la voz divina, respetar sus indicaciones y seguirlas. Esta sabiduría se adquiere «conociendo» a Dios, que en hebreo significa tener con él una relación íntima (cf. Gén. 4: 1), y acatando sus instrucciones (Prov. 9: 10). Y de una manera existencial más concreta, desarrollando la capacidad de apartarse del mal» (Job 28: 28).Señor, dame la inteligencia espiritual que necesito hoy para que mi carácter se desarrolle en la dirección que más convenga a tus proyectos de vida para mí. 

In this special episode, Scott welcomes the legendary Dr. Howard Gardner, a developmental psychologist and professor at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education. Best known for his groundbreaking Theory of Multiple Intelligences, Dr. Gardner’s 1983 book Frames of Mind challenged the traditional view of intelligence as a singular ability measured by IQ tests. Scott and Dr. Gardner explore the impact of his theory on education and psychology, discussing its strengths, limitations, and evolution over time. This conversation is both a deep dive into human intelligence and a personal one as Scott shares how Dr. Gardner’s work shaped his own journey into psychology.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are You Smarter Than You Think? For years, we've been told intelligence is about IQ, test scores, and fitting into a rigid mold. But what if everything you thought about intelligence was wrong? What if intelligence isn't just one thing—but many? In this episode, I sit down with one of the most influential psychologists of our time, Dr. Howard Gardner, the man behind the groundbreaking Theory of Multiple Intelligences. His work changed the way I see people—including myself—and I know it's going to change the way you see yourself and those around you. We break down the different types of intelligence and how understanding them can transform your confidence, your parenting, your leadership, and even your business. Think you're not smart just because you weren't great at math? Think again. You may have an intelligence that's been overlooked your whole life. Dr. Gardner explains how to identify your strengths, unlock your potential, and even help your kids or team members thrive by recognizing their unique abilities. We also get into the future—how AI is reshaping intelligence, what true leadership looks like, and why being "smart" isn't enough. We need people who use their intelligence for good, who lead with purpose, and who build lives based on their natural strengths. Key Takeaways: The eight types of intelligence and why traditional IQ tests only measure two How to identify your personal intelligence (or your child's) The hidden biases we have about intelligence—and how they impact hiring, leadership, and success Why AI is changing the way we think about intelligence and what it means for our future The secret to staying mentally sharp as you age This conversation is going to shift the way you see yourself forever.

In this episode, I explore the significance of emotional intelligence (EI) for we introverts who are either climbing the career ladder or seeking a more fulfilling life. We explore the origins of EI that was then popularised by Daniel Goleman.    It would be remiss of me to talk origins in this way without mentioning Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences.   Understanding this history helps us appreciate how these theories have evolved over time and why they are still relevant.   I believe choosing leaders with robust emotional intelligence is necessary to mitigate our current global crisis by challenging the outdated corporate mindset. By enhancing our EI through actionable feedback and developing a rich emotional vocabulary, we can lead more meaningful lives with stronger interpersonal connections   *** Key Points ***   Emotional Intelligence vs. Cognitive Intelligence. Techniques to enhance EI include feedback. Introversion isn't an excuse for poor skills.   *** Resources ***   Visit https://hub.flourishingintroverts.com/resourcesp for tools and resources mentioned during the podcast.

Class, this is a truly special session. Dr. Howard Gardner, renowned psychologist and educator who developed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, now joins the ranks of Pencil Busters! In 1983, Dr. Gardner rattled the very foundation of education when he proposed that there were more ways to be "intelligent" than could be represented on the Stanford Binet IQ test. Rather, Howard asserted, every human being possesses natural strengths and affinities that we can term intelligence. Over 40 years later, Howard is still advancing the causes of excellent education and recognition of each person's talents. He joins us to discuss how teachers can 'spend less time in the weeds' and more time 'putting it all together' when it comes to navigating educational materials and each student's individual needs. For Dr. Gardner's latest written works, go to his webpage. Also make sure to check out The Good Project for materials on promoting excellence, engagement, and ethics in education.

IQ is, to say the least, a fraught concept. Psychologists have studied IQ—or g for “general cognitive ability”—maybe more than any other psychological construct. And they've learned some interesting things about it. That it's remarkably stable over the lifespan. That it really is general: people who ace one test of intellectual ability tend to ace others. And that IQs have risen markedly over the last century. At the same time, IQ seems to be met with increasing squeamishness, if not outright disdain, in many circles. It's often seen as crude, misguided, reductive—maybe a whole lot worse. There's no question, after all, that IQ has been misused—that it still gets misused—for all kinds of racist, classist, colonialist purposes. As if this wasn't all thorny enough, the study of IQ is also intimately bound up with the study of genetics. It's right there in the roiling center of debates about how genes and environment make us who we are. So, yeah, what to make of all this? How should we be thinking about IQ? My guest today is Dr. Eric Turkheimer. Eric is Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia. He has studied intelligence and many other complex human traits for decades, and he's a major figure in the field of “behavior genetics.” Eric also has a new book out this fall—which I highly recommend—titled Understanding the Nature-Nurture Debate. In a field that has sometimes been accused of rampant optimism, Eric is—as you'll hear—a bit more measured. In this conversation, Eric and I focus on intelligence and its putatively genetic basis. We talk about why Eric doubts that we are anywhere close to an account of the biology of IQ. We discuss what makes intelligence such a formidable construct in psychology and why essentialist understandings of it are so intuitive. We talk about Francis Galton and the long shadow he's cast on the study of human behavior. We discuss the classic era of Twin Studies—an era in which researchers started to derive quantitative estimates of the heritability of complex traits. We talk about how the main takeaway from that era was that genes are quite important indeed, and about how more genetic techniques suggest that takeaway may have been a bit simplistic. Along the way, Eric and I touch on spelling ability, child prodigies, the chemical composition of money, the shared quirks of twins reared apart, the Flynn Effect, the Reverse Flynn Effect, birth order, the genetics of height, the problem of missing heritability, whether we should still be using IQ scores, and the role of behavior genetics in the broader social sciences.  Alright folks, lots in here—let's just get to it. On to my conversation with Dr. Eric Turkheimer. Enjoy!   A transcript of this episode will be available soon.   Notes and links 3:30 – The 1994 book The Bell Curve, by Richard Herrnstein a Charles Murray, dealt largely with the putative social implications of IQ research. It was extremely controversial and widely discussed. For an overview of the book and controversy, see the Wikipedia article here. 6:00 – For discussion of the “all parents are environmentalists…” quip, see here. 12:00 – The notion of “multiple intelligences” was popularized by the psychologist Howard Gardner—see here for an overview. See here for an attempt to test the claims of the “multiple intelligences” framework using some of the methods of traditional IQ research. For work on EQ (or Emotional Intelligence) see here. 19:00 – Dr. Turkheimer has also laid out his spelling test analogy in a Substack post. 22:30 – Dr. Turkheimer's 1998 paper, “Heritability and Biological Explanation.” 24:30 – For an in-passing treatment of the processing efficiency idea, see p. 195 of Daniel Nettle's book Personality. See also Richard Haier's book, The Neuroscience of Intelligence. 26:00 – The original study on the relationship between pupil size and intelligence. A more recent study that fails to replicate those findings. 31:00 – For an argument that child prodigies constitute an argument for “nature,” see here. For a memorable narrative account of one child prodigy, see here. 32:00 – A meta-analysis of the Flynn effect. We have previously discussed the Flynn Effect in an episode with Michael Muthukrishna. 37:00 – James Flynn's book, What is Intelligence? On the reversal of the Flynn Effect, see here. 40:00 – The phrase “nature-nurture” originally comes from Shakespeare and was picked up by Francis Galton. In The Tempest, Prospero describes Caliban as “a born devil on whose nature/ Nurture can never stick.” 41:00 – For a biography of Galton, see here.

What if each of us has an innate ability or intelligence that provides a map or method for helping us learn? What if our strengths, like athleticism or music, are also the keys to success in our lives? Howard Gardner proposed such a theory of multiple intelligences. What's yours?

Howard Gardner taught that there are multiple intelligences. His theory helps us to understand why and how to individualize our teaching, but have you ever taken a test of your intelligences? The results may surprise you. Join Cindy and Alison as they discuss how results can be unexpected and how they guide us as reflective teachers and families.

En uno de esos viajes iban un abogado y una profesora. Mientras avanzaban en la canoa, el abogado preguntó al canoero: —        Mi amigo, ¿usted tiene conocimiento de leyes? —        No —respondió el canoero. —        ¡Qué lástima! —contestó apenado el abogado—. Usted ha perdido la mitad de su vida. La profesora, muy sociable, entró en la conversación e inquirió: —        Señor canoero, ¿usted sabe leer y escribir? —        No, señorita —respondió él. —        ¡Qué pena!, usted ha perdido la mitad de su vida —lamentó la maestra. En eso llegó una ola tan fuerte que volteó la canoa. El canoero, preocupado por la integridad de sus ocupantes, preguntó: —        ¿Ustedes saben nadar? —        ¡No! —gritaron de inmediato el abogado y la maestra. —¡Qué pena!, ustedes están a punto de perder su vida entera —concluyó el canoero. El psicólogo e investigador Howard Gardner elaboró la teoría de las inteligencias múltiples, en la que afirma que las personas tienen inteligencias en diversas áreas, que incluyen habilidades: lingüístico-verbales, lógico-matemáticas, visuales-espaciales, musicales-auditivas, corporales-kinestésicas, interpersonales, intrapersonales, entre otras. Esto implica que podemos ser inteligentes en varias de estas áreas, mientras presentamos carencias en otras. En un sentido práctico esto nos ayuda a entender a los demás y a comprender que no hay áreas del conocimiento o la inteligencia que carezcan de importancia. Por muy bueno que fuera saber de leyes o poder leer, esto no salvaría al abogado o a la profesora de morir ahogados, porque en esa circunstancia el conocimiento más valioso era el de saber nadar. El apóstol Pablo aconseja: «Ninguno se crea mejor de lo que realmente es» (Romanos 12: 3, NTV). Reconocer los dones y talentos de los demás no les resta importancia a los nuestros, pero nos hace más humildes y conscientes de nuestras debilidades y fortalezas. Gandhi decía: «No hay que apagar la luz del otro para lograr que brille la nuestra». En última instancia, todo lo que somos y hacemos debe estar al servicio de Dios. Reconoce hoy tus fortalezas y debilidades y expresa gratitud por los dones y talentos de quienes te rodean.

Forget the standard IQ test - that only measures a very narrow definition of intelligence. Meet psychologist Howard Gardner, professor of cognition and education at Harvard and one of the foremost thinkers and writers in the fields of education, cognition, and multiple intelligences. His fascinating research into different kinds of intelligence (there are 8!) has the potential to revolutionize education, turn our kids into better citizens, and help us all identify our purpose in life. Learn more about our 5 minds, and how our education system should help us to move the needle from "I" to "we" not just personally, but globally.  Plus – the “dark history” of IQ Testing

How do we define intelligence? What is the point of creativity and intelligence if we are not creating good in the world? In this age of AI, what is the importance of a synthesizing mind?Howard Gardner, Research Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, an author of over 30 books, translated into 32 languages, and several hundred articles, is best known for his theory of multiple intelligences, a critique of the notion that there exists but a single human intelligence that can be assessed by standard psychometric instruments. He has twice been selected by Foreign Policy and Prospect magazines as one of the 100 most influential public intellectuals in the world. In the last few years, Gardner has been studying the nature of human synthesizing, a topic introduced in his 2020 memoir, A Synthesizing Mind.For 28 years, with David Perkins, he was Co-Director of Harvard Project Zero, and in more recent years has served in a variety of leadership positions. Since the middle 1990s, Gardner has directed The Good Project, a group of initiatives, founded in collaboration with psychologists Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and William Damon. The project promotes excellence, engagement, and ethics in education, preparing students to become good workers and good citizens who contribute to the overall well-being of society. Through research-based concepts, frameworks, and resources, The Good Project seeks to help students reflect upon the ethical dilemmas that arise in everyday life and give them the tools to make thoughtful decisions."I had two close colleagues, both psychologists: William Damon, a student of moral development, and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, recently deceased, probably known to many of your audience because he developed the notion of flow, which is that psychological state where anxiety and boredom are mediated by something that really involves and engrosses you. And the three of us were able to spend a year together at a research center, and the question we came up with was: Can you be creative and humane at the same time? Creative means having your mind go free, think about all sorts of things, try them out. Nothing is taboo, nothing is off limits. But at the same time, can you do it in a way that's humane and ethical and avoids, for example, creating the Einstein equation, which was a brilliant physics explanation, but also led to nuclear weapons.And similarly with cracking genetic code in any way. And we thought this was a good question, but we weren't wise enough to come up with an answer. So that's why we spent 10 years, roughly from 1995 to 2005, interviewing about 1, 500 people from nine different professions. And it was from that very intensive and extensive study that we came up with the three E's of good work. Excellence, engagement, and ethics. Since then, my research group at Harvard has called this The Good Project. And The Good Project is looking at the development of a moral and ethical stance as young as the age of three or four, preschool, all the way to professions and middle life. And we have a website thegoodproject.org where you can read dozens of blogs and various papers on this topic. And, as Mia indicated, there were also our books in which there's one book called Good Work, and another book called Truth, Beauty, Goodness, Refrain, where we describe our current thinking. And, you know, I think the study would have been different if we had done it in the age of ChatGPT."www.howardgardner.comhttp://thegoodproject.orghttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262542838/a-synthesizing-mindwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

We need to keep carbon down and have people lead lives in ways which are less destructive to our environment. And I don't have a great deal of faith that our political system can do that. I'm not religious myself, but I think that we need to have a new religious leader in the world. I always say Gandhi is the most important person of the last thousand years because he understood that if we tried to fight with weapons, we would just destroy one another. We have to disagree peacefully. And I think we need that kind of figure who can mobilize people across different nations and different attitudes on the question. Where I think I do have something to say, is I think in the schools of the future, we're going to focus much more on what it means to be human beings on our planet. I think that's the best chance for the planet to survive, which is the question of climate change, but also to thrive, which is a question of good work and good citizenship."www.howardgardner.comhttp://thegoodproject.orghttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262542838/a-synthesizing-mindwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

If we're trying to decide what policy to cover, whether it's an economic policy about interest rates, or whether - we're talking now during the beginning of the war in the Middle East - what policies to follow militarily, economically, and ethically. For that matter, do we entrust that to some kind of a computational system, or is this something that human judgment needs to be brought to bear? And if so, how and at what point? And these are quintessential synthesizing questions. You can't just look up and say, 'Well, what should we do with the Gaza Strip? Or what should we do in Japan, which has had low interest rates, but the rest of the world has got very high inflation.' These are not things where we just want to press a button and get the answer. These are things we want to discuss and debate and review and maybe even pit one large language instrument against another and see do they come up with the same answers. They might well not."www.howardgardner.comhttp://thegoodproject.orghttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262542838/a-synthesizing-mindwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

We talk about these things, but we hope our students will carry it through. So I've been trying to organize a network on synthesizing, which now has people from several different countries involved. And my team on The Good Project is working with schools and dozens of countries. And the curriculum has been translated into Portuguese, Chinese, and it's about to be translated into Japanese. And that's how we hope these ideas will make a difference. Now, if you are a pessimist by nature, as I am. You're going to say, 'Well, what can a bunch of scholars in Cambridge, Massachusetts, possibly do that's going to change the way the world is?' And the answer is we can't do it ourselves. We have to find partners and like-minded people all over the world and do blogs and podcasts and write. And I don't do social media, but my colleagues do and try to come out with more positive ways of thinking about things. Because there's plenty of depressing news and examples in the world. And I like to say, I'm a pessimist by nature, but I try to live my life as an optimist.”www.howardgardner.comhttp://thegoodproject.orghttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262542838/a-synthesizing-mindwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

And since then, I've been focused with colleagues on what we call good work and good citizenship. And our study of good work, we studied nine different professionals dealing from law and medicine to journalism to teaching. And we found out people who were admired and to find out why these professionals were admired. And we found out they were admired for three things. One, how excellently they carried out their work. And of course, that's important. Number two, how engaged they were. To what extent do they really like their work, want to do it, and feel good about being at work rather than dreading it? And three, and what you're touching on, did they carry out the work in an ethical way? Now, when it's absolutely clear what to do in a situation, then you don't call it ethical. Ethical is what do you do when a situation is complicated? Let's say you're a lawyer and you find that the client lies to you. Do you let the client lie on the stand? Or do you say, 'No, I'm not going to be your lawyer if you're going to lie.' If you're a doctor, and there are two people who have the same injury and one is a relative and the other is a stranger, what do you do? If you're a journalist, and you're covering a story and you see a crime occurring, should you remain a journalist and cover it? Or should you call the police and become an accessory? So we're very, very interested in how people deal with ethical issues. Now, as you are anticipating. The issues of excellence, engagement, and ethics, they have to be reexamined in an era when there are computational systems which are clearly as excellent as any human being can do, maybe more excellent.”www.howardgardner.comhttp://thegoodproject.orghttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262542838/a-synthesizing-mindwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

He has been called one of the most influential thinkers in the field of  Education - a trailblazer best known for his theory of multiple intelligences. In his memoir, “A Synthesizing Mind” , Harvard Professor Dr. Howard Gardner reflects on his influential career, his groundbreaking work, and his own synthesizing mind.

Welcome back, everybody. Thank you for joining me again this week. I'm actually really excited to dive into another topic that I really felt was important that we address. For those of you who are new, this actually might be a very steep learning curve because we are specifically talking about a treatment skill or a tool that we commonly use in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and even more specifically, Exposure and Response Prevention. And that is the use of imaginals or what we otherwise call scripts. Some people also use flooding.  We are going to talk about this because there are a couple of reasons. Number one, for those of you who don't know, I have an online course called ERP School. In ERP School, it's for people with OCD, and we talk about how to really get an ERP plan for yourself. It's not therapy; it's a course that I created for those who don't have access to therapy or are not yet ready to dive into therapy, where they can really learn how to understand the cycle of OCD, how to get themselves out of it, and gives you a bunch of skills that you can go and try. Very commonly, we have questions about how to use imaginals and scripts, when to use them, how often to use them, when to stop using them, when they become compulsive and so forth.  In addition to that, as many of you may not know, I have nine highly skilled licensed therapists who work for me in the state of California and Arizona, where we treat face-to-face clients. We're actually in Los Angeles. We treat patients with anxiety disorders. I also notice that during my supervision when I'm with my staff, they have questions about how to use imaginals and scripts with the specific clients. Instead of just teaching them and teaching my students, I thought this was another wonderful opportunity to help teach you as well how to use imaginals and why some people misuse imaginals or how they misuse it. I think even in the OCD community, there has been a little bit of a bad rap on using scripts and imaginals, and I have found using scripts and imaginals to be one of the most helpful tools for clients and give them really great success with their anxiety and uncertainty and their intrusive thoughts.  Here we are today, it is again a start of another very short series. This is just a three-week series, talking about different ways we can approach imaginals and scripts and how you can use it to help manage your intrusive thoughts, and how you can use it to reduce your compulsions.  It is going to be three weeks, as I said. Today, we are starting off with the amazing Krista Reed. She's been on the show before and she was actually the one who inspired this after we did the last episode together. She said, “I would love to talk more about imaginals and scripts.” I was like, “Actually, I would too, and I actually would love to get some different perspectives.” Today, we're talking with Krista Reed. Next week, we have the amazing Shala Nicely. You guys already know about Shala Nicely. I'm so happy to have her very individual approach, which I use all the time as well. And then finally, we have Dr. Jon Grayson coming in, talking about acceptance with imaginals and scripts. He does a lot of work with imaginals and scripts using acceptance, and I wanted to make sure we rounded it out with his perspective.  One thing I want you to think about as we move into this series or three-part episode of the podcast is these are approaches that you should try and experiment with and take what you need. I have found that some scripts work really well with some clients and others don't work so well with other clients. I have found that some scripts do really well with one specific obsession, and that doesn't do a lot of impact on another obsession that they may have. I want you just to be curious and open and be ready to learn and take what works for you because I think all of these approaches are incredibly powerful.  Again, in ERP School, we have specific training on how to do three different types of scripts. One is an uncertainty script, one is a worst-case scenario script, and the last is an acceptance script. If you're really wanting to learn a very structured way of doing these, head on over to CBTSchool.com and you can sign up for ERP School there. But I hope this gets you familiar with it and helps really answer any questions that you may have.  Alright, let's get over to the show. Here is Krista Reed. Kimberley: Welcome back, Krista Reed. I am so happy to have you back on the show. Krista: Thank you. I am elated to be able to chat with you again. This is going to be great. Kimberley: Yeah. The cool thing is you are the inspiration for this series. Krista: Which is so flattering. Thank you.  IMAGINAL OR SCRIPT? Kimberley: After our last episode, Krista and I were having a whole conversation and you were saying how much you love this topic. I was like, “Light bulb, this is what we need to do,” because I think the beautiful piece of this is there are different ways in which you can do imaginals, and I wanted to have some people come on and just share how they're doing it. You can compare and contrast and see what works for you. That being said, number one, do you call it an imaginal, do you call it a script, do you think they're the same thing, or do you consider them different? Krista: I do consider them differently because when I think about script, I mean, just the word script is it's writing, it's handwriting in my opinion. I mean, scripture is spoken. That's something a little bit different, but scripting is writing. When I think of an imaginal, that is your imagination. I know that I already shared with you how much I love imaginals because in reality, humans communicate through stories. When we can, using our own imagination, create a story to combat something as challenging as OCD, what a powerful concept. That's exactly why I just simply love imaginals. Kimberley: I can feel it and I do too. There's such an important piece of ERP or OCD recovery or anxiety recovery where it fills in some gaps, right? Krista: Yes, because imaginals, the whole point, as we know, it's to imagine the feared object or situation. It could evoke distress, anxiety, disgust. Yet, by us telling those stories, we're poking the bear of OCD. We're getting to some of that nitty gritty. Of course, as we know that, not every obsession we can have a real-life or an in vivo exposure. We just simply can't because of the laws of science, or let's be real, it might be illegal. But imaginals are also nice for some people that the real-life exposure maybe is too intense and they need a little bit of a warmup or a buy-in to be able to do the in vivo exposure. Imaginal, man, I freaking love them. They're great.  Kimberley: They're the bomb.  Krista: They really are.  HOW TO DO IMAGINALS FOR OCD Kimberley: You inspired this. You had said, “I love to walk your listeners through how to do them effectively. I think I remember you saying, but correct me if I'm wrong, that you had seen some people do them very incorrectly. That you were very passionate because of the fact that some people weren't being trained well in this. Is that true or did I get that wrong? Krista: No, you absolutely got it right. Correct and incorrect, I think maybe that is opinion. I'll say that in my way, I don't do it that way. That's a preference. But this is an inception. We're not putting stories into our clients' minds. The OCD is putting these stories into our clients' minds. If you already have a written-out idea of a script, of like fill in the blanks, you are working on some kind of inception, in my opinion. You are saying that this is how your story is supposed to be. That's so silly. I'm not going to tell you how your story is supposed to be. I don't know how your imagination works. When we think of just imagination, there's so many different levels of imagination.  Let's say for instance, if I have somebody who comes into my office who is by trade a creative writer, that imaginal is probably going to be very descriptive, have a lot of heavy adjectives. Just the way it's going to be put together is going to be probably like an art in itself because this is what that person does. If you have somebody who comes in and creativity is not something that is part of a personality trait, and then I have a written fill-in-the-blank thing for them, it's not going to be authentic for their experience. They're going to potentially want to do what I, the therapist, might want them to do. It's not for me to decide how creative or how deep that person is to go. They need to recognize within themselves, is this the most challenging? Is this the best way that you could actually describe that situation? If that answer is yes, it's my job as a therapist to just say okay. Kimberley: How would one know if it's the most descriptive they could be? Is it by just listening to what OCD has to say and letting OCD write the story, but not in a compulsive way? Share with me your thoughts.  Krista: I think that that's almost like a double-edged sword because that of itself can almost go meta. How do I know that my story is intense enough? Well, on the surface we can say, “Is it a hard thing to say.” They might say yes, and then we can work through. But if I'm really assessing like, “Is it hard enough, is it hard enough,” and almost begging for them to provide some type of self-reassurance, they might get stuck in that cycle of, is this good enough? Is this good enough? Can it be even more challenging?  Another thing I love about imaginals is the limit doesn't exist, because the limit is just however far your imagination can take you. Let's say that I have a session with a client today and they're creating an imaginal. I'm just going to give a totally random obsession. Maybe their obsession is, “I am afraid that I'm going to murder my husband in his sleep,” harm OCD type stuff, pretty common stuff that we do with imaginals. They do the imaginal and they're able in session to work through it. It sounds like it was good. In the session, what they provided was satisfactory to treatment. And then they come back and say, “I got bored with the story,” which a lot of people think that that's a bad thing. That's actually a good thing because that's letting you know that you're not in OCD's control of that feared response and you're actually doing the work. However, they might still have the obsession. I was like, “Okay, so you were able to work through this habituate or get bored of that. Now, let's create another imaginal with this obsession.” Because it's all imagination, the stories, you can create as many as you possibly can or as you possibly want to.  I'm actually going to give you a quote. He's a current professor right now at Harvard. He is a professor of Cognitive and Educational Studies. If you look this guy up, his name is Dr. Howard Gardner—his work is brilliant. He has this fantastic quote that I think is just a bomb when it comes to imaginal stuff. His quote is: “Stories constitute the single most powerful weapon in a leader's arsenal.” Think about that. What a powerful statement that is. Isn't that just fantastic? Because we can hear that as the stories OCD tells us as being hard. Okay, cool story, bro, that is your weapon OCD, but guess what? I'm smarter than you and I brought a way bigger gun and this gun isn't imaginal and I'm going to go ahead and one up you. If I come back that next week in my therapist's office and I'm able to get bored with that, I can make a bigger gun. Kimberley: I love that. It's true, isn't it? I often will say, “That's a good story. Let me show you what I've got.” It is so powerful. Oh my gosh. Let's actually do it. Can you walk us through how you would do an imaginal? Krista: This is actually something that I created on my own taken from just multiple trainings and ERP learning about imaginals, because one of the things that I was realizing that a lot of clients were really struggling with is almost over-preparing just to do the imaginal. Sometimes they would write out the imaginal and then we would work through that. But what I was finding is sometimes clients were almost too fixated on words, reading it right, being perfect, that they were almost missing out on the fact that these are supposed to be movies in our mind. Kimberley: Yeah. They intellectualize it. Krista: Exactly. I created a super simple format. I mean, we really don't have a lot of setup here. It's basically along the lines of the Five Ws. What is your obsession and what is your compulsion? Who is going to be in your story? Who is involved? Where is your story taking place? When is your story taking place? And when is already one of those that's already set because I tell people we can't do anything in the past; the past has already existed. You really need to be as present as possible. But the thing is that you can also think. For instance, if my obsession is I'm going to murder my husband in his sleep tonight, part of that might be tonight, but part of that might also be, what is going to be my consequence? What is that bad thing that's going to happen? Because maybe the bad thing isn't necessarily right now. Maybe that bad thing is going to be I'm not going to have a relationship with my children and what if they have grandchildren? Or what if I'm going to go to hell? That might not necessarily exist in the here and now, but you're able to incorporate that in the story. When is an interesting thing, but again, never in the past, needs to start in the present, and then move forward.  And then also, I ask how. How is where I want people to be as descriptive as possible. For instance, if I say, and this is going to sound gritty, you're fearful that you're going to murder your husband tonight. Be specific. How are you going to murder your husband? Because that's one of the things that OCD might want us to do. Maybe it is just hard enough to say, “I'm going to murder my husband.” But again, we're packing an arsenal here. Do you want to just say that? Because I can almost guarantee you OCD is already telling you multiple different ways that it might happen. Which one of those seems like it might be the hardest? Well, the hardest one for me is smothering my husband with a pillow. Okay, that's going to be it. That's literally my setup. That's literally my setup, is I say that. Actually, I have one more thing that I have to include. I have all that as a setup and then I say, “Okay, at the very end, you are going to say this line, and it's, ‘All of this happened because I did not do the compulsion.'” If I were going along with the story of I murdered my husband, I suffocated him with a pillow, and in my mind, the worst thing to happen is I don't have a relationship with my kids and grandchildren, and the compulsion might be to pray—I'll just throw that out—the last line might be, “And now, I don't have a relationship with my children or grandchildren all because I decided to not pray when the thought of murdering my husband came up in my mind.” That is the entire setup.  And then I have my clients get their phones out and push record. They don't have to do a video, just an audio is perfectly fine. I know some therapists that'll do it just once, but I actually do it over and over again. Sometimes it could be a five-minute recording, it could be a 20-minute recording, it could be a 40-minute recording. The reason for that being is if we stop just after one, we might be creating accommodation for that client, because I want my clients to be in that experience. That first time they tell that story after that very brief setup, they're still piecing together the story. Honestly, it's really not until about the third or fourth time that they've repeated that exact same story that they're really in it. I am just there and every time they finish—I'll know they finish because they say, “And this happened all because da da da da da”—I say, “Okay, what's your number?” That means what's your SUDS? And they tell me they're SUDS. I might make a little bit, very, very minimal recommendations. For instance, if they say, “I murdered my husband,” I say, “Okay, so this time I want you to tell me how you murdered your husband.” Again, they say the exact same story, closing their eyes all over again, this time adding in the little bit that I asked for. We do that over and over and over again until we reach 50% habituation. Then they stop recording. That is what they use throughout the week as their homework, and you can add it in so many different ways.  Again, keeping along with this obsession of “I'm afraid I'm going to kill my husband tonight,” I want you to listen to that with, as you probably have heard this as well, just one AirPod in, earbud, whatever, keep your other ear outside to the world. This is its way to talk back to OCD. Just something along the lines of that. I want you to the “while you're getting ready for bed.” Because if the fear exists at night and your compulsions exist at night, I want you to listen to that story before you go to bed. It's already on your mind. You're already in it, you're already poking the bear of OCD. It's like, “Okay, OCD, you're going to tell me I'm going to kill my husband tonight? Well, I'm going to hear a story about me killing my husband tonight.” Guess what? The bad thing's going to happen over and over and over again.  It's such a powerful, powerful, powerful thing. Because it's recorded, you can literally listen to it in your car. You can listen to it on a plane. You can listen to it in a waiting room. I mean, there's no limit.  Kimberley: It's funny because, for those of you who are on social media, there was this really big trend not long ago where they're like what they think I'm listening to versus what I'm actually listening to, and they have this audio of like, “And then she stabbed her with the knife.” It's exactly that. Everyone thinks you're just listening to Britney Spears, but you're listening to your exposure and it's so effective. It's so, so effective. I love this. Okay, let's do it again because I want this to be as powerful as possible. You did a harm exposure. In other episodes, we've done a relationship one, we've done a pedophile one. Let's pick another one. Do you have any ideas?  Krista: What about scrupulosity? Kimberley: I was just going to say, what about scrupulosity? Krista: That one is such a common one for imaginals. We hear it very frequently, “I'm going to go to hell,” or even thinking about different other religions like, “Maybe I'm not going to be reincarnated into something that has meaning,” or “It's going to be a bad thing. Maybe I'm insulting my ancestors,” or just whatever that might be. Let's say the obsession is—I already mentioned praying—maybe if I don't read the Bible correctly, I'm going to go to hell. I don't know. Something along the lines of that. If that's their obsession, chances are, there's probably somebody that maybe they have a time where they're reading the Bible or maybe that we have to add in an in vivo where they're going to be reading or something like that. A setup could potentially be, what is your obsession? “I'm afraid that any time I read my Bible, I'm not reading it correctly and I'm going to go to hell.” What is your compulsion? “Well, my compulsion is I read it over and over and over again and I reassure myself that I understand it, I'm reading it correctly.” Who's going to be in your story? This one you might hear just, “Oh, it's just me.” Really, OCD doesn't necessarily care too much if anybody else is in this story. Where are you? “I'm in my living room. It's nighttime. That's when I read my Bible.” When is this taking place? “Oh, we can do it tonight.” Let's say it's tonight.  Interestingly enough, when you have stuff that's going to go to hell, that means, well, how are you getting to hell to begin with? Because that's not just something that can happen. Sometimes in these imaginals, the person has to die in order to get there, or they have to create some type of fantastical way of them getting to hell.  I actually had a situation, this was several years ago, where the person was like, “Well, death doesn't scare me, but going to hell scares me,” because, in some cultures and some religions, it's believed that there are demons living amongst us and so forth. “It's really scary to think about, what if a demon approaches me and takes me immediately to hell and I don't get to say goodbye to my family, my family doesn't know.” Just even like that thought. We were able to incorporate something very similar to that.  Just to make up an imaginal on the spot, it could be, I'm reading my Bible. I'm in my living room, I'm reading my Bible, and the thought pops up in my brain of, did you read that last verse correctly? I decide to just move on and not worry about reading my Bible correctly. Well then, all of a sudden, I get a knock at the door and there's these strange men that I've never seen in my life, and they tell me that they're all demons, and that because I didn't review the Bible correctly, I'm going to go to hell. I would go on and on and probably describe a little bit more about my family not missing me, I don't get to see my kids grow up, I don't get to experience life, the travel, and the stuff that's really important to me, incorporate some of those values. I don't get to live my value-based life. And then at the very end, I was summoned and taken to hell by demons, all because I had the thought of reading my bible correctly and I decided not to.” Kimberley: I love it, and I love what I will point out. I think you use the same model as me. We use a lot of “I” statements like “I did this and I did that, and then this happened and then I died,” and so forth. The other thing that we do is always have it in present tense. Instead of going, “And then this happens, and then that happens,” you're saying as if it's happening. Krista: Yeah. Because you want it to feel real to the person. In all honesty, and I wonder what your experience has been, I find some of the most difficult people to do imaginals with our children. Even though you would think, “Oh, they're so imaginative anyways,” one of the biggest things I really have to remind kids is, I want you to be literally imagining yourself in that moment. Again, I see this with kids more than adults, but I think it just depends on context and perspective. We'll say, “Well, I know that I'm in my living room,” or “I know that I'm in your office, so this isn't actually happening to me in this moment.” You almost have to really work them up and figure out, what's the barrier here? What are you resisting? Kimberley: That's a good question. I would say 10 to 20% of clients of mine will report, “I don't feel anything.” I'll do a Q and A at the end of this series with common questions, but I'm curious to know what your response is to a client who reads like, “I kill my baby,” or “I hurt my mom,” or “I go to hell,” or “I cheat on my husband,” or whatever it is, but it doesn't land. What are your thoughts on what to do then? Krista: A couple of things pop up. One, it makes me wonder what mental compulsions they're doing. And then it also makes me wonder, are we going in the right direction with the story? Because again, like I mentioned before, if a client comes back and they've habituated to one thing, but they're still having the obsession, well, guess what? We're just telling stories. Because the OCD narrative is typically not just laser-focused—I mean, it can be laser-focused, but usually, it has branches—you can pick and choose. I'm going to go ahead and guarantee, that person who is terrified of killing their husband ensure they're not going to see their grandchildren and children. I'm going to go ahead and waiver that there's probably other things that they're afraid of missing.  Kimberley: Yes. That's what I find too, is maybe we haven't gotten to the actual consequence that bothers them. I know when I've written these for myself, we tend to fall into normal traps of subtypes, like the fear that you'll harm somebody or so forth. But often clients will reveal like, “I'm actually not so afraid that I'll harm somebody. I'm really afraid of what my colleagues and family would think of me if I did.” So, we have to include that. Or “I'm afraid of having to make the call to my mom if I did the one thing.” I think that that's a really important piece to it, is to really double down on the consequence. Do you agree? Krista: Oh, I agree a hundred percent. You got to figure out what is that core fear. What are you really, really trying to avoid? With harming somebody, is it the consequences that might happen afterwards? Is it the feeling of potentially snapping or losing control? Or is it just knowing that you just flat out, took the life of somebody and that that was something that you were capable of? I mean, there's so many different themes, looking at what does that feared self like, what does that look like, and maybe we didn't hit it last time. Kimberley: Right. Krista: I know this is going to sound silly and I tell my clients this every once in a while, is I'm not a mind reader. What I'm asking you, is that the most challenging you can go and you're telling me yes, I'm going to trust you. I tell them, if you are not pushing yourself in therapy to where you can grow, I'm still going to go to bed home and sleep tonight just fine. But I want you to also go home and go to bed and sleep just fine. But if you are not pushing yourself, because we know sleep gets affected super bad, not just sleep, but other areas, you're probably going to struggle and you might even come back next week with a little bit more guilt or even some shame. I don't want anybody to have that. I want people to win. I want people to do well in this. I know this stuff is scary, but I'm going to quote somebody. You might know her. Her name is Kimberley Quinlan. She says, “It's a beautiful day to do hard things.” I like to quote her in my practice every once in a while.  Kimberley: I love her. Yes, I agree with this. The way you explained it is so beautiful and it's logical the way you're explaining it too. It makes sense. I have one more question for you. Recently, I was doing some imaginals with a client and they were very embarrassed about the content of their thoughts. Ashamed and guilty, and horrified by their thoughts. I could see that they were having a hard time, so I gave them a little inch and I went first. I was like, “Alright, I'm going to make an assumption about what yours is just to break the ice.” They were like, “Oh yeah, that's exactly what it is.” There was a relief on their face in that I had covered the bases. We did all of the imaginal and we recorded it and it was all set. And then at the end I said, “Is there anything that we didn't include?” They reported, “Yeah, my OCD actually uses much more graphic words than what you use.” I think what was so interesting to me in that moment was, okay, I did them the favor by starting the conversation, but I think they felt that that's as far as we could go. How far do you go? Krista: As far as we need.  Kimberley: Tell me what that means. Krista: Like I mentioned before, the limit does not exist and I mean, the limit does not exist. This is going to sound so silly. I want you to be like a young Stephen King before he wrote his first novel and push it. Push it and then go there. Guess what? If that novel just doesn't quite hit it, write another one, and then another one, and let's see how far you can go. Because OCD is essentially a disorder of the imagination, and you get to take back your imagination by creating the stories that OCD is telling us and twisting it. I mean, what an amazing and powerful thing to be able to do. I'm sure you're the same in that you know that there's a lot of specialists that don't believe in imaginals, don't like imaginals, especially when it comes to issues with pedophilia OCD. I think we also need to not remind our clients because that would be reassurance, but to tell these specialists, we're not putting anything into our client's heads that aren't there to begin with. Just like you said, if your client is thinking like real sick, nasty core, whatever, guess what? We're going to be going there. Are you cutting off the heads of babies in your head? Well, we're going to be talking about stories where you're cutting off the heads of babies. If that's what's going on, we're going to go there. Kimberley: What's really interesting, and this was the example, is we were talking about genitals and sexual organs and so forth. We're using the politically correct term for them in the imaginal. Great. Such a great exposure. Vagina and penis, great. Until again, they were like, “But my OCD uses much more graphic words for them.” I'm like, “Well, we need to include those words.” Would you agree your imaginals don't need to be PC? Krista: I hope my clients watch this, and matter of fact, I'm going to send this to them, just to be like, no, no. Krista's imaginals with her clients. Well, not my imaginals. Imaginals that are with my clients. Woah, sometimes I'm saying bye to my client. I'm like, “I think I need a shower.” Kimberley: Again, when people say they don't like imaginals or they think that it's not a good practice, I feel like, like you said, if OCD is going to come up with it, it gives an opportunity to empower them, to get ahead of the game, to go there before it gets there so that you can go, “Okay, I can handle it.” I would often say to my clients, “Let's go as far as we can go, as far as you can go, so that you know that there's nothing it can come up with that you can't handle.” Krista: I think that where it gets even more complex is when we're hitting some of the taboo stuff. Not only pedophilia, but something like right now that I'm seeing a lot more of in my office is stuff relating to cancel culture. This fear that what if I don't use somebody's pronouns correctly? What if I accidentally say an inappropriate racial slur? I will ask in session and I'll be super real. It's hard for me to hear this stuff because this goes outside of my values. Of course, it goes outside of their values. OCD knows that. That's why it's messing with them. I'll say, “Okay, so what is the racial slur?” My clients are always like, “You really want me to say it?” I said, “We're going to say it in the imaginal.” I realized how hard that is to stomach for therapists. But in my brain, the narrative that OCD is pushing, whether it is what society views as OCD or taboo OCD, it doesn't matter. We still have to get it out. It is still hard for that client. If that's hard for that client to think of an imaginal or a racial slur, it is almost the exact same amount of distress for somebody maybe with an imaginal that I'm afraid I'm getting food poisoning.  We, as clinicians, just because we're very caring and loving people, sometimes we can unintentionally put a hierarchy of distress upon our clients like, okay, I can do this imaginal because this falls with my values, but I don't know if I can do this imaginal because pedophilia is something that's hard for me to do and I don't want to put my client through that. Well, guess what? Your client is already being put through that, whether you like it or not. It's called OCD. Kimberley: Right. Suppressing it makes it come on stronger anyway. Love that. I think that the beauty of that is there is a respectful value-based way of doing this work, but still getting ahead of OCD. Is that what you're saying? Krista: Absolutely. OCD tries to mess with us and think, what if you could be this person? Well, like I mentioned before, if a story is like a weapon, well, I'm going to tell a story to attack OCD because it's already doing it to me. Kimberley: Yeah. Tell us where people can hear more from you, get your resources because this is such great stuff. Krista: Thank you. I'd say probably the best way to find me and my silly videos would be on my Instagram @anxiouslybalance. Kimberley: Amazing. And your private practice? Krista: My private practice, it's A Peaceful Balance in Wichita, Kansas. The website is apbwichita.com. Kimberley: Thank you so much. I'm very grateful for you for inspiring this whole series and for also being here as a big piece of the puzzle. Krista: Thank you. I'm grateful for you that you don't mind me just like this. I'm grateful for you for letting me talk even though clearly, I'm not very good at it right now. You're amazing. Kimberley: No, you're amazing. Thank you. Really, these are hard topics. Just the fact that you can talk about it with such respect and grace and compassion and education and experience is gold.  Krista: Thank you. At the end of the day, I really truly want people to get better. I know you truly want people to get better. Isn't that just the goal? Kimberley: Yeah. It's beautiful. Krista: Thank you.

Sharla Dance was finishing her degree in Music Education at Brigham Young University when she took a children's music class from Susan Kenney. The principles and methods used in that class changed the way she wanted to teach music. When her daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age seven, Sharla delved into research about how the brain learns, Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, and the body's role in learning as taught by neurologist Carla Hannaford. Since then, some of her research and experience has centered around music in a group setting for special needs children. She also started applying her research to Primary music and has continued to learn and teach workshops, helping church music leaders learn principles and brain research that can make them more effective in teaching children. Sharla has taught piano and voice lessons, group preschool, and school age music classes in her studio, Dance Sing and Play, for twenty five years. She has served as ward or stake Primary music leader in over ten different wards and stakes, and as a youth choir specialist in her stake for twenty years. She has served several times as ward choir director and stake music chair, and is currently first counselor in her ward Relief Society. Sharla is the mother of five children and she and her husband live in Washington state where she is also a full-time caregiver for their daughter who had that brain tumor so many years ago. Highlights 04:00 Sharla is the Primary music leader. A Gospel Doctrine teacher for children through music. She shares her resources with other leaders. 06:10 Sharla shares her background and how she got into music. 10:00 Resources Sharla shares for Primary and why she got her website started 12:50 The overall breakdown of what you should do during music time is to teach three different songs with three different activities and bear your testimony in one or two sentences. 15:50 Each child should be actively involved with a specific song. Help the children use their senses to learn and practice the songs. 22:00 One thing that researchers have found that helps the frontal lobe develop is purposeful movement with a steady beat. 23:30 When children learn music with props, beats, and movements it creates an experience for them and brain hooks that help them remember that song. 24:20 Sharla believes that when we teach a child music with these different hooks that the song will come back to teach the child and to teach them doctrine when they really need it. 26:00 Drilling the words of a song and practicing them over and over is what we commonly see in Primary. However, Sharla teaches that we need to focus on the beat, rhythm, and the melody while singing the words. This is way easier for the brain to connect everything. 30:20 The process of audiation is singing a song in your head. It's the strongest way to remember a song. Leave out words and have the kids fill them in and sing it out loud. 31:00 Sharla explains why movement while singing and to a steady beat is so important and useful for children. It activates the whole body and turns it into a thinking machine. 34:00 Line upon line is a great way for the brain to learn, especially when we sing the whole song. 37:20 Parents have found that even the children that don't really participate in Primary are singing at home all the time. 40:00 Sharla does activities that can involve all the children and the songs that they are learning, especially because there is only twenty minutes to do it in. 41:30 Research shows that to keep the attention span of an adult active and attentive we need to change the pace every ten minutes. Children need a change of pace every six to seven minutes. 45:30 The teachers need to be involved in music time too. 46:40 Each child takes in information in a slightly different way and the brain craves variety. We need to teach in different ways to reach different children.

How can you boost and unlock your multiple intelligences? There's a common misunderstanding that there is one type of intelligence. Maybe you took a standardized test when you were in school, and that score was how you defined your IQ. But research shows that not only are there multiple types of intelligence, but it isn't a fixed number either. I'm going to dive into this research on today's show. Specifically, I'm going to go over Howard Gardner's eight types of intelligences, plus a few extra, and some examples of how they might have developed or shaped your experiences of the world. I talk a lot about the importance of having a growth mindset and this is why. You can improve your intelligence, but you first have to believe it's possible. Listen in, as I describe each of the eight types of intelligences and visualize each one to determine which type—or types—you connect with the most. ***If you're inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.
