Psychologist Gerd Gigerenzer explains the power of intuition, how intuition became gendered, what he thinks Kahneman and Tversky's research agenda got wrong, and why it's a mistake to place intuition and conscious thinking on opposing ends of the cognition spectrum. Topics he discusses in this wide-ranging conversation with EconTalk's Russ Roberts include what Gigerenzer calls the "bias bias"--the overemphasis on claims of irrationality, why it's better to replace "nudging" with "boosting," and the limitations of AI in its current form as a replacement for human intelligence and intuition.

What do you do when life changes in ways you didn't choose—and didn't see coming? In this deeply emotional and intellectually grounding conversation, I sit down with Dr. Maya Shankar, cognitive scientist, former White House advisor, and host of the podcast A Slight Change of Plans, to talk about change, identity, grief, and uncertainty.   Maya shares her powerful personal story of being accepted into Juilliard at a young age, only to have her violin career abruptly end due to a devastating injury. From there, we explore how unexpected change threatens our identity, why the human brain craves certainty, and how men, husbands, and fathers can navigate seasons where the future they imagined suddenly disappears. This conversation hit me personally as I opened up about my son preparing to leave for college, and Maya offers language, tools, and clarity for anyone navigating major life transitions.     Timeline Summary: [0:00] What happens when life changes and you don't get a vote. [1:28] Introducing Dr. Maya Shankar and the theme of unexpected change. [2:10] Being accepted into Juilliard at age nine and pursuing music at the highest level. [3:05] A career-ending violin injury and the grief that followed. [4:05] How loss threatens not just what we do—but who we are. [7:44] Learning violin by ear and developing passion without perfection. [9:03] A mother's fearlessness and the power of bold action. [11:06] Cold emailing, courage, and creating unexpected opportunities. [13:39] Being bullied as a child and finding safety in family and music. [15:16] Larry reflects on marriage drift and identity shifts. [18:06] Pivoting from academia to public policy and working at the White House. [21:51] The power of defaults and how behavioral science changed public outcomes. [25:17] Why uncertainty is harder on the brain than certainty—even bad certainty. [27:05] The illusion of control and how change shatters it. [27:31] Anchoring identity to why you do things, not just what you do. [29:45] Navigating infertility, loss, and redefining self-worth. [33:11] Why we resist change even when it's necessary for growth. [36:00] Marriage, evolution, and the "end of history illusion." [39:32] How hardship can lead to unexpected personal growth. [45:43] Gratitude as a tool for identity resilience. [48:25] Helping kids navigate change while managing your own emotions. [50:28] The grief of kids leaving home—even when it's a good thing. [54:26] Why we are more resilient than we think. [56:15] The importance of community during seasons of change. [59:19] Maya shares her book, podcast, and where to connect.     Five Key Takeaways Change threatens identity as much as circumstance, which is why it feels so destabilizing.  The brain prefers certainty—even negative certainty—over uncertainty, making transitions especially stressful.  Anchoring identity to your values and motivations creates resilience when roles and plans fall away.  We underestimate our ability to adapt and overestimate how painful change will be long-term.  Connection, community, and self-reflection are essential tools for navigating major life transitions.      Links & Resources Dr. Maya Shankar's Book: https://a.co/d/3u87zps Dr. Maya Shankar on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmayashankar/?hl=en Roommates to Soulmates Course: https://thedadedge.com/soulmates Episode Show Notes & Resources: https://thedadedge.com/1420     Closing Remark If this episode gave you language for a season of change you're navigating right now, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast. You're not alone in the uncertainty—and you're far more resilient than you think.

In this episode of Future Tech, filmmaker Jason Sherman speaks with Al Holland, NASA's longtime senior operational psychologist, about the human systems behind spaceflight. Holland helped shape how astronauts are selected, trained, and supported for long-duration missions, including the International Space Station and future missions to Mars. Drawing from decades of experience at NASA, Holland discusses how astronauts were selected and trained for long-duration missions, why teamwork and self-regulation matter as much as technical skill, and how isolation, sleep disruption, and separation from family quietly shape performance in space. He also reflects on early astronaut training at places like the Johnsville Centrifuge and how lessons from Cold War research continue to influence modern missions to the International Space Station and future journeys to Mars. This conversation is part of the ongoing research and storytelling behind the documentary “Before the Moon”, which explores the hidden places, people, and systems that made human spaceflight possible.

In this episode, Angela sits down with endocrinologist Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, MD to break down the biggest myths around GLP-1 medications, midlife weight gain, and perimenopause - and to explain how women can protect muscle, metabolism, and long-term health. Rocio explains how oestrogen decline and stress drive visceral belly fat, why you can have a normal BMI yet high visceral fat and low muscle, and why body composition matters far more than the scales. She also clarifies who GLP-1s are truly for, why microdosing “for wellness” is unsafe, and how to use these medications without losing muscle or bone. They also explore the psychological side of lifelong food noise, binge eating, and why GLP-1s can make sustainable lifestyle change finally feel possible. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • How oestrogen decline changes fat distribution in midlife • Why “skinny fat” and sarcopenic obesity are often missed with BMI • How stress and cortisol contribute to midlife weight gain • Who is genuinely suited to GLP-1 therapy • How to preserve muscle and bone while on treatment • The mental health benefits of reducing lifelong food noise • Why safe dosing and body composition tracking are essential Timestamps 0:00 Intro & GLP-1 Myths 4:30 Oestrogen decline, perimenopause & new visceral belly fat 10:20 Stress, cortisol, midlife pressure & weight gain 15:05 “Skinny fat”, sarcopenic obesity & why BMI fails women 21:10 Muscle loss, slowed metabolism & weight loss resistance 27:40 Who GLP-1s are for: guidelines vs real-world practice 34:15 The truth about microdosing GLP-1s for “wellness” 40:05 Type 1 vs type 2 diabetes, insulin needs & GLP-1s 45:50 Inflammation, visceral fat & joint pain relief 52:00 Side effects, risks & how to avoid muscle/bone loss 58:10 Compounded GLP-1s, safety concerns & regulation 1:04:00 Psychology of rapid weight loss & identity change VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: • Hormone Harmony – Go to https://lvluphealth.com/angela | Use code ANGELA for an exclusive 15% off • Beam Minerals – Go to https://beamminerals.com/angela | Use code ANGELA for an exclusive discount • Ozlo Sleepbuds® – Go to https://ozlosleep.com/angela | Use code ANGELA for your exclusive discount ABOUT THE GUEST Dr Rocio Salas-Whalen, MD is a double board-certified endocrinologist and obesity medicine specialist known for her evidence-based, body-composition-focused approach to metabolic health.

Most people don't fail because their goals are impossible — they fail because they wait for a date on a calendar to save them. In today's episode, The Science of Starting Now: How Micro-Actions Beat Motivation, we're breaking down why New Year's resolutions, "I'll start Monday," and waiting for motivation actually train your brain to delay your life. When you put change off, you create more stress, more shame, and more pressure… and that pressure becomes the reason you avoid doing anything at all. You'll learn the real psychology and neuroscience behind procrastination: Why your brain sees "future you" as a stranger How planning gives dopamine without progress Why perfectionism secretly keeps you stuck How delaying decisions destroys self-trust Most importantly, you'll learn how small actions right now can completely rewire your identity, reduce anxiety, and build the version of you that actually follows through. No more waiting for Mondays. No more waiting for motivation. Today counts. If you're ready to ditch shame-based resolutions and start living the life you want now, this episode is your wake-up call.

An exciting collection of stories of change that most people don't usually hear from the bottom up, from the grassroots, about what's happening in East Asia. Spaces of Creative Resistance: Social Change Projects in Twenty-First-Century East Asia (Rutgers UP, 2025) brings together an exciting cross-regional interdisciplinary group of scholars, scholar activists, artists, and others for a collection that addresses the last two decades' hollowing out of social connections, socioeconomic income gaps, and general precarity of life in East Asian societies. Written by authors from China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, each chapter is focused on people making a difference together in socially sustainable ways, particularly in the areas of gender, labor, and environments - both built and natural. These projects all constitute acts of creative resistance to neoliberal development, and each act of creative resistance demonstrates how individuals and communities across East Asia are making new worlds and lifeways in the small and everyday. Taking on larger political and economic forces that affect their lives and communities, each project and group of individuals featured here is focused on making more liveable presents and more possible futures. Andrea Gevurtz Arai is a cultural anthropologist and Acting Assistant Professor in the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington. She is the author of The Strange Child: Education and the Psychology of Patriotism in Recessionary Japan (2016), co-editor of Spaces of Possibility: Korea and Japan (2016) and Global Futures in East Asia (2013).

An exciting collection of stories of change that most people don't usually hear from the bottom up, from the grassroots, about what's happening in East Asia. Spaces of Creative Resistance: Social Change Projects in Twenty-First-Century East Asia (Rutgers UP, 2025) brings together an exciting cross-regional interdisciplinary group of scholars, scholar activists, artists, and others for a collection that addresses the last two decades' hollowing out of social connections, socioeconomic income gaps, and general precarity of life in East Asian societies. Written by authors from China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, each chapter is focused on people making a difference together in socially sustainable ways, particularly in the areas of gender, labor, and environments - both built and natural. These projects all constitute acts of creative resistance to neoliberal development, and each act of creative resistance demonstrates how individuals and communities across East Asia are making new worlds and lifeways in the small and everyday. Taking on larger political and economic forces that affect their lives and communities, each project and group of individuals featured here is focused on making more liveable presents and more possible futures.

Robb Kelly, PhD – The Recovery Expert – was born in Manchester, England. He grew up in a family of musicians and developed a deep love for music at an early age. He was performing on stage by the age of nine. During his early twenties, he worked at the prestigious Abbey Road Studios as a session musician in London.Addiction was always close to his heart, as Dr. Kelly was born into a family with a history of alcoholism. He began drinking and using drugs at a young age, but he managed to stay on a path of success, moving to Oxford in the early 1980s to pursue a PhD in Psychology at the esteemed University of Oxford. He continued to drink heavily during his time in Oxford—yet still managed to complete his doctoral studies, earning a PhD in psychology in 1984.Even though he was a heavy drinker, no one would have predicted that he would end up living on the streets of Manchester, homeless and alone. He recalls a night when he had a staggering realization about his own alcoholism. It would later inspire two of his most popular catchphrases: “The Problem is not our Drinking, it is our Thinking” and “Step out of the Disease, and into the Solution.”Dr. Kelly was standing on a street corner one night in Manchester, body trembling from alcohol withdrawal. He stood in front of a liquor store, shaking and desperately waiting for it to open. He knew that as soon as he took that first sip of alcohol, he would feel relief.As soon as the store opened, he rushed inside. The clerk grabbed a bottle of vodka from the shelf and placed it in a brown paper bag before him. As he lifted the bag, his trembling stopped. His body ceased shaking, and his mind found peace. He hadn't even taken the first sip; it was just the promise of alcohol that stopped his shaking and eased his restlessness.Dr Robb Kelly Official Website: https://robbkelly.com/Unlocking Humanity with Ancient Knowledge | Host John Edmonds Kozma Hosted on Acast.

Now on Spotify Video! After decades leading AI research at NASA, Google, and Stanford, Peter Norvig has watched artificial intelligence advance at an incredible pace, often without enough consideration for the people it's meant to serve. While the systems grew better at optimizing algorithms, far less focus was placed on fairness, human agency, and real-world impact. That realization led Peter to champion a more human-centered approach to AI. In this final episode of the AI Vault series, Peter breaks down how to design and use AI in ways that elevate human abilities, support better decision-making, and promote fairness across business, education, and leadership. In this episode, Hala and Peter will discuss: (00:00) Introduction (02:28) His Transition From Academia to Corporate (06:05) The Evolution of Google Search Technology (12:59) How Artificial Intelligence Has Changed Over Time (17:53) Human Intelligence vs. AI Capabilities (23:38) What Is Human-Centered AI?

In this week's episode, I'm joined by Amy Griffin for a deeply personal conversation about what it means to re-parent yourself—and how that inner work quietly transforms your parenting. We talk about the pressure to be perfect, the role of control and trust in family relationships, and how healing your own story can create more safety for your kids. Amy shares how telling the truth, setting boundaries, and staying in the light reshaped the way she shows up as a mother, partner, and person—and why parenting isn't about having the answers, but about doing the work with honesty and compassion.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

There is a growing awareness in psychiatry that not all psychiatric illness is psychiatric— some percentage of what presents in psychiatric settings is actually triggered by autoimmune responses to various pathogens and insults.  In the late '90s a syndrome called PANDAS (pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with strep) came on the scene with cases of sudden onset OCD and tics that appeared in conjunction with strep infections. The theory behind PANDAS was that parts of the basal ganglia of the brain had exterior cell proteins which were very similar to those of the strep bacteria, and as the immune system began to attack the strep bacteria, it also began an autoimmune assault on parts of the midbrain, including the basal ganglia, thus producing a sudden onset of OCD or tics.In recent years PANDAS has evolved into a broader concept called PANS— pediatric acute onset neuropsychiatric syndrome— which includes a vast array of neurological and psychiatric symptoms and syndromes that can potentially be triggered by autoimmune reactions. It can be tricky to diagnose PANS….this is probably why it is still a somewhat controversial diagnosis in some arenas. We don't have a clear and consistent set of labs or biomarkers to positively determine PANS, and because the syndrome is so broad in how it can present, clinicians struggle to come up with a modal or average presentation that they can put in their pattern recognition systems. One feature that seems fairly classic for PANS is that the symptoms tend to increase during and/or right after a concomitant infectious illness, presumably because the immune system activation is reigniting the autoimmune attack on the central nervous system.Today's story features a mom, Kari, and her daughter, Zoe. Zoe had lots of illness and immune system issues as a young child, first fatigue and then GI symptoms, then profound mood instability, and then she eventually developed horrific treatment resistant anorexia which did not respond to the best treatments psychiatry had to offer.Support the show! https://www.buzzsprout.com/396871/support"I Love You, I Hate You, Are You My Mom?"  An intensive experiential workshop exploring transference with Dr. H and Dr. Hillary McBride, Feb 4th-6th 2026 in Joshua Tree, CA https://www.craigheacockmd.com/i-love-you-i-hate-you-are-you-my-mom/BFTA episode recommendations/Podcast pagehttps://www.craigheacockmd.com/podcast-page/Support the show

Losing weight is probably one of the most common reasons we hear that people want to end their binge eating. It's the physical symbol of success and is most apparent to the world. Reasons for wanting to change their current state may also include bothersome achy knees, elevated blood pressure, or distress about not being a healthy role model. But the big thing that hurts them on a daily basis is the size, shape, or weight of their body. If you want to stop binge eating mostly because you want to lose weight, that's a perfectly fine reason. The goal for today's episode is to help alleviate the frustration that can grow when you're doing the right things to stop binge eating, but your weight hasn't budged. Because if we don't address that frustration, it leads people to lose focus on binge eating recovery and start focusing instead on moving the scale. We will discuss how the order of the stages of recovery matter, why weight loss before conquering binge eating doesn't work, and learn about the steps toward achieving both goals. We want to equip you with strategies to navigate your own journey to complete food freedom, including deliberate weight loss behaviors and maintaining long-term success. Episode Timeline:00:00 Introduction to the Podcast00:26 Client's Weight Loss Frustration01:09 Understanding the Root Causes04:28 Stages of Binge Eating Recovery04:47 Initial Phase: Establishing Regular Meal Patterns05:53 Building Self-Awareness08:02 Re-patterning Responses11:11 Optional Stage: Deliberate Weight Loss15:05 Final Phase: Maintenance16:54 Conclusion and Next StepsConnect with Georgie and the Confident Eaters Coaches: WebsiteFacebookInstagramHave you ever thought, "I know what to do, I just need to consistently do it"?

How does a man live under the same roof as his wife and children while allegedly carrying out seven brutal murders over nearly three decades? In this powerful two-part breakdown, we bring together two of the nation's leading experts on human behavior—former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott—to explain how Rex Heuermann may have maintained one of the most disturbing double lives in modern true crime. Robin Dreeke opens the episode with a deep dive into the psychology of compartmentalization, truth-default theory, and why spouses detect lies only about 50% of the time. He explains how Heuermann allegedly created a split existence: family man in Massapequa Park, predator operating in secrecy when his wife and children were out of town. Burner phones, controlled finances, rigid routines—each played into the illusion of normalcy. Dreeke draws critical parallels to notorious cases like BTK, revealing the subtle relationship red flags that can be missed even by those closest to the perpetrator. Then psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins to analyze the chilling emotional dynamic captured in the Peacock documentary. Asa Ellerup's unwavering loyalty—even calling Rex her “hero”—opens a window into trauma bonding, coercive control, and the psychological grooming that can turn a spouse into an unknowing enabler. From Asa's isolation to tightly restricted access to finances and technology, Scott exposes the mechanisms that may have kept her locked inside Heuermann's constructed reality. Together, these insights reveal not just how a predator allegedly concealed his crimes, but how ordinary families can be pulled into extraordinary darkness without ever recognizing the danger. For anyone concerned about relationship safety, manipulation, or hidden abuse, this episode offers crucial perspective—and a sobering look at the human cost behind one of America's most haunting serial killer cases. #RexHeuermann #SerialKillerPsychology #GilgoBeachMurders #AsaEllerup #RobinDreeke #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeAnalysis #DoubleLife #TraumaBonding #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

— Music is a remedy of the soul, a bridge between cultures, languages, and a range of emotions. Music Therapy is a clinical and evidenced-based healthcare profession that combines the power of music with skilled therapeutic interventions to address the physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals. Through musical involvement in the therapeutic context, clients' abilities are strengthened and transferred to other areas of their lives. Music therapy also provides avenues for communication that can be helpful to those who find it difficult to express themselves in words. The expressive nature of music can bring self-awareness and insight to individuals who desire increased wellness in their lives, and can be a powerful mode of therapy for anyone interested in exploring their inner world through music.

Psychologists have typically believed that we become less curious as we age, but recent research has shown curiosity actually becomes more targeted and specific in our later years. In this episode from September, Madeleine Finlay hears from Dr Mary Whatley, an assistant professor of psychology at Western Carolina University, and Dr Matthias Gruber of Cardiff University's Brain Research Imaging Centre to find out why we change in this way, and how maintaining broad curiosity into older age can help keep our brains young.
