You've been told your hormones make you irrational.That menopause means cognitive decline, your emotions are just chemistry gone wrong, and your brain is simply too complicated to understand.Science says otherwise.This week's guest, Dr. Sarah McKay, is a neuroscientist, author, and brain health expert who's spent her career dismantling the myths we've been told about women's brains. From the idea that we're slaves to our hormones to the fear that menopause means inevitable decline, Sarah brings data, nuance, and hope to conversations that have been shaped by outdated stereotypes for far too long.We explore:Why male and female brains are more similar than different, and how cultural context shapes the differences we do seeThe surprising truth about PMS: how rates vary from 12% in France to 90% in IranWhy the stereotype that women are "more emotional" isn't backed by scienceHow your brain actually changes during menopauseThe real relationship between hormones, sleep, and brain fogWhy early puberty affects girls and boys so differentlyWhat brain networks do when estrogen declinesThe truth about HRT and brain health: what the data actually showsHow expectations and cultural narratives create the experiences we haveSarah doesn't dismiss women's struggles or minimize real symptoms. Instead, she offers something more powerful: the understanding that our brains are not broken, fragile, or at the mercy of our biology. They're sophisticated, adaptive, and capable of remarkable reorganization throughout our lives.This isn't about toxic positivity or dismissing genuine challenges. It's about recognizing that the stories we've been told about women's brains, that we're irrational, unstable, or declining, aren't just wrong. They're actively shaping our reality.Love,Sarah Ann

S5E7 - A One-Month Test to be Happy

This week, McKay introduces a practical and powerful challenge: the one-month happiness test. Drawing inspiration from Laurie Santos's famous Yale course, "Psychology and the Good Life," this episode moves beyond big, life-altering events to focus on the small, consistent actions that are scientifically proven to boost happiness. McKay breaks down simple yet profound practices like savoring positive moments, actively choosing your focus through selective attention, expressing gratitude, performing acts of kindness, and strengthening social connections. Through relatable stories and real-world examples, he illustrates how these "micro-adjustments" can retrain our brains, counteracting our natural negativity bias and leading to a more joyful, fulfilling life. Listeners are invited to take the test for themselves and discover how intentional, daily habits can create lasting change.Main Themes:Happiness comes from small, consistent changes, not just big life events.You can retrain your brain to focus on the positive through selective attention.Savoring positive experiences - before, during, and after - deepens their impact.Practicing gratitude is a powerful choice that turns what you have into enough.Acts of kindness boost happiness for both the giver and the receiver.Strong social connections are a primary predictor of a long, happy life.Exercise and sleep are foundational pillars for mental well-being and happiness.You can become the author of your life by choosing what to focus on and practice.What you notice becomes your reality.A one-month test is long enough to implement new habits and see real results.Top 10 Quotes:"The strange truth is... most people return to their baseline level of happiness after these major life events. This phenomenon is called the hedonic treadmill.""Tiny, regular changes to your daily life often make a bigger, longer-lasting difference than these big things.""Your brain is built to scan for problems... but you can change what you focus on, and it will help you be more happy.""Savoring is the deliberate, post-activity act of looking back on what you've done and taking time to appreciate it.""Gratitude turns what we have into enough.""Close relationships, more than money or fame, are what kept people happy throughout their lives.""These examples aren't miracles; they're micro-adjustments in their lives.""You get to choose what you'll focus on. So this month, to test your happiness, focus on the good.""Kind service has this magic feel to it."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

He also talks about the addressable market for DevSecOps (the development, security and operations approach), potential automation driven by AI and Snyk's acquisitions for both talent and product features as the attack surface expands in cybersecurity.

McKay shares a collection of powerful, real-world stories here today as he explores the transformative power of viewing life as a journey from one form of strength to another. From a collegiate runner's recovery after a devastating accident to the historic leadership of Abraham Lincoln and the creative genius of Beethoven, our host illustrates how our greatest weaknesses can become the catalysts for our most profound strengths.Listeners will learn to reframe challenges, setbacks, and even failures not as endpoints but as essential experiences that build resilience, empathy, and new capabilities. McKay offers practical advice on the importance of trying, seeking help, and taking small, consistent steps to move forward. Today's episode is a compelling reminder that who we are is not static; we are constantly developing, and our struggles are an integral part of that growth.Main Themes:Life is a continuous journey of moving from one developed strength to another.Weaknesses and challenges are opportunities to build new, deeper strengths.Overcoming adversity fosters resilience, empathy, and maturity.The simple act of trying, especially after failure, is a powerful catalyst for growth.Seeking help is a sign of strength, not a weakness.You can begin to change your life by doing something different today.Growth requires taking risks and stepping outside your comfort zone.Focus on doing a little more of what works and a little less of what doesn't.Top 10 Quotes:"The journey we take in this life is moving really from strength to strength.""The strength you gain in getting help and overcoming weaknesses propels you to the next level in your life.""Weaknesses that are given to us in life can help us move from strength to strength.""For when I am weak, then I am strong.""Each time you try, despite the lack of strength of the bridge or the chasm or the gaps in your life, you strengthen those bridges.""You don't have to let your past dictate your future, even if it's your recent past.""You may not have to have all the answers. Just do a little bit more of what works and a little bit less of what doesn't.""It's when we step outside our normal routine or normal circumstances that we see and grow in new ways.""Starting where you are is sometimes all you can and often all you need to do. Trying is enough.""Your talents rise and your gaps are spanned, and your weaknesses become strengths."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Burning Bright and Chris Paul dive into Vice, Adam McKay's star-studded portrayal of Dick Cheney, for a sharp, layered discussion about propaganda, controlled opposition, and how narratives are weaponized across decades. They explore how the film cleverly uses the Bush years to smear Trump by proxy, blending truth with cynicism to rebrand neoconservatives as the “good Republicans” liberals can stomach. The hosts dissect the unitary executive theory, the administrative state's grip on power, and why Cheney was never just an outlier but a vessel for the same entrenched system driving perpetual war. From the Iraq invasion's marketing campaign to the hidden hand behind Israel's influence, Chris and Burning Bright examine how McKay's film sidesteps deeper truths in favor of a palatable villain story that leaves the real machine untouched. Along the way, they reflect on their own political awakenings, the legacy of 9/11-era narratives, and the recent echoes of Bush-era rhetoric in the Trump years. Part history lesson, part cultural autopsy, this episode is a reminder that the most effective propaganda is the one that feels true, especially when it flatters the audience's sense of moral superiority.

The challenging yet crucial skill of making hard choices is in the spotlight this week as McKay draws inspiration from Ruth Chang's TED Talk and real-world examples ranging from President Truman's wartime decisions to personal dilemmas faced by his own family and himself. The episode explores the nature of hard choices - those where options seem equally compelling or unclear - and offers practical strategies for navigating these pivotal moments. McKay emphasizes the importance of understanding your values, gathering information (but not getting paralyzed by it), taking small steps to test options, and ultimately, committing to a path. Illustrating how these decisions shape not only our immediate future but also who we become, our host urges listeners to embrace the process of choosing, even when it's difficult, as a pathway to growth and a more fulfilling life.Main Themes:Hard choices involve equally compelling options.The process of choosing fosters personal growth.Test different paths to gain clarity.Align decisions with core values and what fosters growth.Commit to a choice, then learn and adapt.True success is measured by service and impact.Making your own choices builds agency and responsibility.Learn from all past choices, good and bad.How you live with a choice matters more than the choice itself.Gain diverse perspectives to find the best path.Top 10 Quotes:"Hard choices are those when we're comparing options, they seem on par, and maybe for different reasons, but the choice, the decision, is hard and unclear.""This is the natural response, right? When faced with similar choices, most of us don't decide. And that may be the worst choice of all.""When you're faced with such a decision, you can start walking down one path or the other. Go as far as you can without too much cost or investment.""Which program will cause you as a person to have grown more? To become better and to give you new possible directions in life?""Choose the one that stretches you in the right way that helps you grow.""In my view, our decisions are not perfect, but our living with those decisions makes it so.""The real measure of success is, ‘How did we serve in our circumstance?'”"It's often not how good we are at making decisions, but how good we are at making life good from the decisions that we've made that matters.""Ascertain what matters. Identify your guiding values.""Take the attitude that this helps you become the author of your life, forming who you want to be."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

This week, McKay unpacks the "S-Curve", a powerful concept from the business world, and reveals how its principles are a blueprint for navigating change and achieving lasting growth in our careers, families, and personal lives. By examining the rise and fall of corporate giants like Kodak, Walmart, and Netflix, he illustrates that the path to success isn't a straight line but a series of curves, each requiring a strategic "jump" to avoid stagnation and reach the next level.The episode breaks down the predictable stages of any new venture - a slow start, a period of rapid growth, and an inevitable plateau. McKay uses compelling stories to show why companies like Kodak failed when they clung to their old models, while innovators like Walmart and Netflix thrived by noticing market shifts, leveraging their core strengths, and bravely jumping to a new curve. The discussion provides listeners with three actionable strategies - getting started without the perfect plan, becoming a "first-class noticer," and finding synergies between the old and the new - to successfully navigate their own S-Curves and turn moments of challenge into catalysts for profound growth.Main Themes:Growth in business, careers, and personal life follows a predictable three-stage S-Curve.To avoid stagnation, one must "jump" from a maturing S-Curve to a new one.The strategies that lead to initial success are often not the ones that sustain it.Successful adaptation involves noticing market changes, learning from others, and taking calculated risks.Leverage your existing strengths and assets when pivoting to a new approach.The first step in jumping the curve is to take action, even if imperfectly, and learn from the process.Gaining new perspectives is essential for identifying when and how to change course.The principles of the S-Curve apply equally to corporate strategy, parenting, personal health, and career development.Top 10 Quotes:"Often in life, the things you used to be successful at last only up to a certain point.""What got you here is not going to get you where you need to go.""The market changes, interest rates move, social causes evolve, our children and what is popular changes.""The best leaders, the best business leaders are first-class noticers.""Rather than abandon its way of doing business, Walmart found ways to leverage what was good about their business model.""You have to be more strategic about spending family time.""So lesson number one is to get moving. Start trying a new approach.""You'll find greater happiness and prosperity waiting when you jump the S-Curve in what you do."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

In this episode, I speak with Matt about his evolution as a therapist, researcher, and founder of New Harbinger Publications. Originally trained in Gestalt therapy, Matt transitioned to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) after discovering its effectiveness in addressing his own anxiety—and its ability to offer more structured tools for change. From there, his work expanded into third-wave CBTs like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), especially as he sought to support clients experiencing complex emotional challenges, trauma, and persistent distress that weren't always responsive to traditional CBT protocols. We discuss the development of a transdiagnostic and precision-based approach to therapy, centered on identifying specific mechanisms such as emotional and cognitive avoidance. Matt explains how treatment can be tailored using interventions like emotion exposure, mindfulness, and cognitive diffusion to address each client's unique coping profile—an approach supported by his work on the Comprehensive Coping Inventory. Matt also talks about the founding and mission of New Harbinger Publications, which pioneered the self-help workbook format grounded in evidence-based therapies. He shares insight into their newest tool, Therapy Assist, a digital resource for therapists to assign skills-based, diagnostic-specific homework. We delve into his clinic's current research on trauma treatment, including the effectiveness of combining ACT with EMDR and written exposure therapy. We also explore how trauma manifests physiologically and emotionally, and why traditional approaches often fall short when addressing complex PTSD, dissociation, or early attachment trauma. Matt reflects on integrating coping skills into ACT—an often debated topic—and describes his efforts to bridge therapeutic models like Schema Therapy and ACT. We explore how these integrations can support trauma clients in choosing value-based responses over automatic, schema-driven reactions. Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the growing movement toward precision therapy—individualized, mechanism-targeted, and empirically grounded. Dr. McKay's work continues to shape how therapists understand suffering and resilience, and how they can empower clients with the tools to navigate both. Dr. Matthew McKay is a clinical psychologist, professor at the Wright Institute, founder of New Harbinger Publications, and author of research and over 40 books on CBT, ACT, trauma, and emotional healing, including Mind and Emotions, The Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook, and Emotion Efficacy Therapy. He cofounded the Haight Ashbury Psychological Services agency in 1979 and served as its Clinical Director for 25 years and is currently the co-director of the Bay Area Trauma Recovery Clinical Services (BATRCS). Matt's interests extend to writing poetry, fiction, and music, and he has a published novel and two books of poetry.

In this special episode, artist and HMG founder/owner, Ryan Wallace, talks with artist and Deep Color host Joseph Hart about how the show blossomed from idea to reality, the DIY nature of producing art exhibitions, the range and cohesiveness of the works on view, being surprised by a handful of artworks during installation, the unscientific curatorial process behind Deep Color, wearing shorts on airplanes, and stamina and horizon lines for Deep Color as a project.Listeners are encouraged to check out the exhibit in-person or online, then revisit the episode archive for that extra magic and context, and as a method for learning about and connecting with the artworks on view.“I'm incredibly appreciative of these artists for recording conversations with me for Deep Color and for being part of this exhibition. They've let us behind the curtain and into their studios. They've told us stories about the formative experiences that helped shape their artwork and outlook. They've offered us guidance, and different models, for how to approach and think about being an artist. Through these acts of generosity, and through their artwork, these artists are contributing to culture in a way that can fuel imagination, provide light, and soften the complicated aspects of our daily lives.

In yet another insightful episode of the Open Your Eyes podcast, McKay traces the transformative power of knowledge, from the darkness of the 14th century to the modern bookshelf. By exploring key lessons from history and foundational books, he demonstrates how acquiring knowledge remains the ultimate tool for personal growth, effective leadership, and a more fulfilling life.Drawing a stark contrast between a pre-literate world of disease and ignorance and the revolutions that followed, our host credits Johannes Gutenberg's printing press with changing the world. He then distills potent, actionable wisdom from a number of influential books, including practical tactics on negotiation from Never Split the Difference, persuasion from Influence, and marketing from Contagious. The episode also highlights the power of perseverance over talent as detailed in Grit and the necessity of emotional focus in leadership from Daniel Goleman's work, ultimately encouraging listeners to see reading not as a pastime, but as a direct path to empowerment.Main Themes:Knowledge is the ultimate form of power.The spread of information, via the printing press, ended an era of ignorance and sparked global progress.Reading is a direct path to personal and professional growth.Effective negotiation is a process of discovery, not a battle.Understanding human psychology (reciprocity, social proof, providing reasons) is key to influence.Grit and perseverance are often more important than innate talent.Emotional intelligence allows leaders to focus on what truly matters.Marketing should be a generous act of helping others.Top 10 Quotes:"Knowledge has the power to change people, cultures, homes, families, and businesses.""Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.""Negotiation is not an act of battle; it's a process of discovery.""People simply like to have reasons for what they do.""Marketing is the generous act of helping others, not selling others.""When we care, we share.""Grit mattered more than intelligence, leadership, or physical fitness.""Leaders with high emotional intelligence... can suspend emotions or reactions on things that don't matter most.""What kept the population in such poor conditions was the lack of knowledge.""At the foundation of our behavior and beliefs really is the way we see the world and ourselves in it."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

McKay explores the profound truth that our lives are shaped by our choices in this latest instalment of the Open Your Eyes podcast. From celebrity comebacks to devastating wildfires and artistic dedication, he illustrates how embracing "everything is a choice" empowers us to move beyond circumstance, take responsibility, and consciously design a life of purpose and fulfillment.Illustrating the real-world impact of decisions, our host draws upon such examples as a California wildfire, where proactive choices saved homes, and a professor's financial advice leading to debt-free living. He highlights the disciplined choices of artists like Picasso and Julie Andrews, alongside the compounding power of small daily actions. Stories of Suze Orman turning disaster into success and Ruth Pfau dedicating her life to service after a pivotal decision underscore how conscious choices redefine our paths. In essence, McKay encourages listeners to recognize their agency, define who they want to become, and use the power of choice to steer their lives intentionally.Main Themes:"Everything is a choice" as a core empowering principle.Small, consistent choices compound over time.Taking 100% responsibility for actions and outcomes.Defining who you become is crucial.Discipline can create freedom.Proactive decisions prevent disaster and build success.The "trim tab" effect: small choices steer life's direction.Pivotal choices can redefine a life's path.Top 10 Quotes:"We get to choose to live the life we have.""The world gets out of the way for people who know what they want and where they're going.""Every disciplined effort has its own multiple reward.""The choices we consistently make have a compounding effect on our life.""Little, everyday decisions will either take you to the life you desire or disaster.""The day you graduate from childhood to adulthood is the day you take full responsibility for your life.""Some people regard discipline as a chore.

Inspired by Mother Teresa's legacy, our host stresses that individuals are now their own powerful brands, as he discusses purpose, authenticity, and strategically building reputation for influence and fulfillment.Throughout the episode, McKay shares insights from his career and academia, noting personal brands combine attributes, actions, and value communication. He goes on to explain that others' perception is key - people connect with the individual, making a defined brand vital for success. His stories of "Blue Collar Discipline" Jordan and Coach Knight show how living a defined brand unlocks potential and inspires. Overall, McKay concludes that consciously building your brand is about becoming, not just achieving.Main Themes:Understanding personal branding as the intentional shaping of your reputation and narrative.The power of aligning your actions and life with a defined promise or purpose, as exemplified by Mother Teresa.Recognizing that individuals are the new brands, and your personal story has immense value.The importance of self-awareness in identifying your unique attributes, skills, and values for brand building.How consistent, authentic communication and action contribute to a strong personal brand.Learning that people "buy into you" before they buy into your product, service, or idea.Practical steps for defining your brand, including self-audits and creating a personal narrative.The lasting impact of a strong personal brand on personal growth, influence, and legacy.Top 10 Quotes:"When we can see things and ourselves as they really are, we can gain tremendous power to do and be more than otherwise possible.""In the world today, brands are less and less logos or slogans. They're stories, values, and experiences that people emotionally connect with. And now, more than ever, people are the brand.""We're all making a brand with our life and work, whether we're doing it on purpose or not.""You have to realize that people buy into you before they buy into your product.""Your personal brand is the perception others have of you. How you're seen, remembered, and yes, even talked about.""Your brand is what people say about you when you're not in the room.""Every effort you expend in trying to become someone better, someone of excellence, has a multiplier effect on your life.""Who you become is infinitely more important than what you do or what you have.""You are of more value than your past performance. You're greater than your habits.""Make a better person of yourself and the result will be a better nation and a finer world to live in."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen
