How do you make an institution that's both a museum and a memorial — at the same time?How are exhibitions like theater? Is a museum a group experience, or a personal one — or is that a trick question? When is it time to trust your gut? Why is collaboration so important? When is a single milk can the most important object in a museum? How can one single, simple philosophy inform everyone's work, from the curators to the team making mounts for the artifacts? How are the principles of making a memorial museum different from other types of museums — or are they so different after all?Alice Greenwald (Principal of Memory Matters, LLC, and past President and Chief Executive Officer of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum) joins host Jonathan Alger (Managing Partner, C&G Partners) to discuss “Making a Memorial Museum.”Along the way: spackling, reverence, and what happens when a museum director leaves their office door open.Talking Points:0.

Sometimes, with the right mindset, you can learn lessons from anywhere—but even I didn't expect to be so inspired by a little shoe-wearing shell.That's exactly what we're diving into in this (admittedly different) episode of Building Resilience, as I take you through the surprisingly deep themes found in the movie "Marcel the Shell with Shoes On." Despite its whimsical nature, Marcel's journey touches on the importance of connection, managing stress through play and laughter, and the essence of hope and resilience amidst grief and loss. Through Marcel's eyes, we're reminded of the significance of community, the power of a positive mindset, and the strength found in simple joys. Marcel's story is a testament to the resilience within us all, proving that sometimes, the smallest characters can inspire the biggest changes in our perspective.Resources:Podcast Roadmap: Revolutionize your life with the power of your nervous system, listening to these episodes.The "Memory Matters" course---cherish and protect your memories, they're invaluable.The Advanced Nervous System Resilience training---join the waitlist!

Sometimes, the pain we feel isn't just a symptom of physical injury but a complex interplay between our body and mind. This connection, often overlooked, can hold the key to understanding chronic pain and even unlock new ways of relieving it. The pain is real—but its physical traces are not always present.In this episode of Building Resilience, I delve into the intriguing concept of neuroplastic pain and mind-body syndrome. I had the opportunity to explore this topic with Dr. Howard Schubiner, whose insights shed light on how our brain can sometimes make the body feel physical symptoms. We discuss the criteria for identifying these types of conditions (FIT), and the profound implications for healing.

Pain is more than just a signal; it's a complex experience that intertwines with our nervous system in ways we're only beginning to understand.In this episode of Building Resilience, I take you through the intricate relationship between chronic pain and the nervous system. Drawing from my certification in pain reprocessing therapy, I delve into the concept of neuroplastic pain---where our brains mistakenly perceive safe signals as threats, causing real pain without physical harm. I share insights into how chronic pain can arise from past trauma, stress, and even certain personality traits—but the important thing to remember is that all pain is genuinely felt and deeply real.Links:Ep.163 - The Power of WalkingResources:Podcast Roadmap: Revolutionize your life with the power of your nervous system, listening to these episodes.The "Memory Matters" course---cherish and protect your memories, they're invaluable.The Advanced Nervous System Resilience training---join the waitlist!

Legendary Leaders: Making Legendary Leaders

I was reading a Harvard Business Review article the other day, and as you know, I refer to them off and on in these episodes. I love HBR because it helps me see different perspectives and look at concepts I hadn't considered before. The other day I read an article by Philip White about why your memory matters in leadership. I enjoy reading articles on memory. You see, when I was in school, I could listen to a teacher read off test questions and then a week later recall all of the multiple choice options as well as the correct answer, simply by listening to her share those details verbally. I can recall most song lyrics (I love music). And, when I was younger and didn't have my attention pulled in a thousand directions, I could have a conversation with someone and have total recall of the discussion, what each person said verbatim, etc. When I was in pharmacy school, I would make study notes on one piece of paper. When I would get into the exam, I could picture the piece of paper in my mind and remember the information based on seeing the "picture in my mind." (Fun facts about Katrina

We've heard it said that those who fail to remember the past are doomed to repeat it. That's why the psalmist calls us to remember God's faithfulness and warns us about the cost of forgetfulness. Even so, we see God's ultimate faithfulness--that he has not forgotten us--through the work of Christ.

There for Them by Hebrew SeniorLife

In our latest episode, we explore memory loss. What’s normal, what’s not, and when to worry about your aging parents. From forgetting keys to wandering, we discuss how to figure out what’s going on, and how to get help for the whole family.

What does a fatal plane crash by a veteran pilot and a patient death from a wrongful dosage by an expert nurse have in common? They both might have been interrupted in the middle of critical procedures and may not have remembered to come back to where they left off. While processing information in working memory, your attention acts like a 360° searchlight and whatever it happens to illuminate is what gets attended. Even though we cannot multitask or ‘multi-attend,' our mind foolishly persuades us that we can. Today, my guest, world-renowned working memory expert, Dr. Randy Engle, discusses how the secret of training our working memory lies in managing our attention and intention.About Randall Engle, Ph.D.Randall W. Engle, went to W. Va. State College because it was the only school he could afford to attend but it was one of the transforming experiences of his life. State was a public all-black college prior to 1954. As a consequence, most of his faculty were outstanding scholars who could not get jobs at top universities. He graduated with nearly as many hours in zoology and math as he had in psychology so it was probably inevitable that he gravitate to experimental psychology. The job market was tough in 1972 and Engle was lucky to land a job at King College in Tennessee. His two years there, with 10 classes per year, made him a teacher. Fortunately, two of his classes each year were senior research seminars, which he used to conduct experiments. At the end of two years, he had two publications, enough to land him a job at the University of South Carolina where he spent the next 21 years.He moved to the School of Psychology at Georgia Institute of Technology as Chair, a position he held for 13 years. He stepped down as chair to found the GSU/GT Center for Advanced Brain Imaging (CABI) on the Georgia Tech campus. He is editor of Current Directions in Psychological Science and has been on the editorial board of numerous other journals over his career. His research for the past 30 years has explored the nature of working memory, the nature and causes of limitations in working memory capacity, the role of those differences in real-world cognitive tasks, and the association of working memory capacity and cognitive control to fluid intelligence. His work has been funded by various agencies including the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, Air Force Office of Scientific Research, and Office of Naval Research. His work has been highly influential across a wide array of areas including social psychology, emotion, psychopathology, developmental psychology, psychological testing, and has contributed to modern theory of cognitive and emotional control. Harzing's Publish or Perish shows that Engle's work has been cited over 17,000 times. He is a fellow of the American Psychological Association, Association of Psychological Science, American Association for the Advancement of Science, Society of Experimental Psychology, and the Memory Disorders Research Society. He has served as Chair of the Governing Board of the Psychonomic Society, Chair of the Board of the Council of Graduate Departments of Psychology (COGDOP), and President of Division 3 of APA.

If life was a play, some activities would be the star of show and others would be just ‘extras'. The mind is often full of thoughts about the upcoming main act while plowing through the mundane, such as unloading the dishwasher, taking out the garbage or rescheduling a doctor's appointment. But no matter what the task is we are always deploying Working Memory. Working Memory is the fine-china of cognition on which you either serve an ordinary burger and fries or a rib-eye steak. On today's podcast, Dr. Randy Engle will talk about the fascinating ‘system' that let's you hold on to, for example, a riddle, “Throw away the outside and cook the inside, then eat the outside and throw away the inside” and solve it without getting distracted by cars honking, people talking, or computers humming.About Randall Engle, Ph.D.Randall W.
