In this week's episode, we dive deeper into Daniel Kahneman's influential work, "Thinking Fast and Slow," which dissects the dichotomy between the intuitive, quick-reacting System 1 and the more deliberative, logical System 2 of our minds. This comprehensive analysis helps us understand how these systems influence our judgments, lead to various cognitive biases, and impact our decision-making processes. We'll explore how biases like anchoring, confirmation, sunk cost fallacy, and halo effect can skew our perceptions and decisions in both trivial and critical situations. By highlighting real-world examples and engaging scenarios, this episode aims to equip you with strategies to recognize and counteract these biases, fostering better cognitive habits and decision-making skills. Join us to unravel the complexities of our cognitive processes and discover practical tips for navigating the mental traps that often go unnoticed in our daily lives. This episode will not only broaden your understanding of human psychology but also empower you to take charge of your mental biases and think more clearly under various circumstances. I trust that this episode, along with the book, will prove beneficial to you, your loved ones, and the broader world. As always, I will be sharing several thought-provoking concepts for you to ponder and apply in real-life scenarios in the upcoming days. For those feeling adventurous, there will also be a challenge awaiting your participation! All the love, all the power, all of the time!

François Chollet discusses the limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs) and proposes a new approach to advancing artificial intelligence. He argues that current AI systems excel at pattern recognition but struggle with logical reasoning and true generalization. This was Chollet's keynote talk at AGI-24, filmed in high-quality. We will be releasing a full interview with him shortly. A teaser clip from that is played in the intro! Chollet introduces the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) as a benchmark for measuring AI progress towards human-like intelligence. He explains the concept of abstraction in AI systems and proposes combining deep learning with program synthesis to overcome current limitations. Chollet suggests that breakthroughs in AI might come from outside major tech labs and encourages researchers to explore new ideas in the pursuit of artificial general intelligence. TOC 1.

Jasmine illuminates how biases extend beyond race and gender, affecting every aspect of training, from content creation to the delivery format. With her background in diversity, equity, and inclusion, she provides valuable insights into why recognising these biases is crucial for trainers and facilitators . This episode is not just theory—it's loaded with actionable advice.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and David Aaronson discuss:Why sales has a bad reputation in the legal industry. Being human before selling. Properly utilizing the Universal Seven Principles of Persuasion. Understanding the emotional decision-making that happens before the intellectual decision-making. Key Takeaways:Sales has changed from hard selling to consultant selling. There is power in social proof and in having authority. What are you doing to build relationships and authority in your area of expertise?Look at what your competitors are doing and be an authority against those competitors. If they are creating lots of content online, you should be as well to compete with them. Do your research on those you want to build relationships with to create unity with something beyond the superficial. "Just because the seven principles are there, doesn't mean they're going to happen naturally, you have to affect them." — David Aaronson Take the BE THAT LAWYER challenge at Fretzin.com!

Kontinuierliches Lernen mit Hilfe von Experimenten und A/B-TestingIn vielen Diskussion geht es darum, welche Lösung die bessere ist und einen größeren Impact hat. Viele Entscheidungen werden aus dem Bauch heraus getroffen, obwohl gesagt wird, dass wir datengetrieben arbeiten. Doch Daten und Ergebnisse sind oft nicht vorhanden. Experimente mit A/B-Tests sind für solche Situationen das Mittel der Wahl.Hypothese aufstellen. Experiment umsetzen und durchführen. Ergebnis evaluieren. Und das ganze wiederholen. Klingt einfach.Experimentelles Mindset: Check. Doch wie macht man sowas denn im Detail? Auf welche und wie viele Metriken schaut man während eines Experiments? Wie lange darf es dauern? Kann ich das ganze auch mit wenig Kunden und Traffic umsetzen? Was sind die typischen Fehler beim A/B-Testing? Was ist ein p-Wert, eine statistische Signifikanz, eine Power-Analyse, ein A/A-Test, der Priming-Effekt?Das und noch viel mehr in dieser Episode mit unserem Gast Dr. Philipp Monreal.Bonus: Ob A/B-Testing mit Podcast-Episoden-Titeln für normale Podcast-Hosts möglich ist.Das schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

Being an entrepreneur means taking a ride on a never-ending rollercoaster full of intoxicating highs and sobering lows with twists and turns around every corner. In this episode, Ben and Andrew share lessons they've learned from their own setbacks and why entrepreneurs must be overly confident and ready to take on whatever challenge comes next. In this episode, you'll also hear: Lessons from Andrew's failed restaurant in Korea Knowing when and how to pivot as an entrepreneur Understanding the risk and loss that comes with entrepreneurship Must-listen moments: [00:13:42] And that's what you say, right? You think all this money's gonna come so easy? Just because the first buck comes in, you think a wheelbarrow is gonna be behind it. [00:20:23] Maybe you start off with one idea or entrepreneurial pursuit, you learn a few things from it, but you realize, this just isn't really the gig I want to be in. But that doesn't mean we close the door to all entrepreneurial pursuits, we just look to maybe what's the next thing? [00:33:57] Maybe you need to really have an honest conversation with yourself in the mirror and say, maybe I'm still into entrepreneurship, but maybe I do need to really have some very strong guardrails in place that guide me, and I need to really analyze the risk on this deal and take a look at what needs to happen for this to be a situation that I'm comfortable with entering into.

But the way your partner triggers your nervous system often has nothing to do with them and everything to do with trauma you've experienced in the past. So, what if you could change the way your mind accesses that trauma and stay present with your partner in those moments? Dr. Don Wood, PhD, is CEO of the Inspired Performance Institute and creator of the patented TIPP method for clearing the effects of traumatic events and rebooting the brain for peak performance. Dr. Wood is also the author of two bestselling books, Emotional Concussions and You Must Be Out of Your Mind. On this episode of Divorce Dialogues, Dr. Wood joins Katherine to explain how communication breaks down when the mind perceives a threat and describe how his TIPP method neutralizes our fight-or-flight response. Dr. Wood walks us through his memory reset process, weighing in on how unresolved trauma adversely effects our physical and mental health. Listen in to understand how trauma interferes with our ability to perform at the highest level and learn how to interrupt the trauma loop that threatens your marriage! Topics Covered The communication breakdown in Dr. Wood's marriage that inspired his work How communication breaks down when our mind perceives a threat and activates our nervous system Why it's challenging for couples who've both experienced trauma to communicate effectively How the TIPP method works to reset the way our mind accesses trauma What Dr. Wood's 4-hour memory reset process looks like How unresolved trauma impacts our physical and mental health How the excess cortisol associated with trauma leads to weight gain Why Dr. Wood suggests that both people in a marriage clear their trauma How trauma interferes with our ability to perform at the highest level Examples of professional athletes Dr. Wood has helped improve their performance Connect with Dr. Don Wood Inspired Performance Institute: https://www.inspiredperformanceinstitute.com/ Inspired Performance on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/inspiredperformanceinstitute Inspired Performance on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTKWCHeUmPZSqkvuRTblajA Dr. Wood on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-don-wood-phd-a71b8412/ Connect with Katherine Miller The Center for Understanding Conflict: http://understandinginconflict.org/ Miller Law Group: https://westchesterfamilylaw.com/ Katherine on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kemiller1 The New Yorker's Guide to Collaborative Divorce by Katherine Miller: https://www.amazon.com/New-Yorkers-Guide-Collaborative-Divorce/dp/0692496246 Email: katherine@miller-law.com Call (914) 738-7765 Resources Books by Dr. Don Wood: https://www.inspiredperformanceinstitute.com/books Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman: https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374533555 Adverse Childhood Experiences Study: https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/aces/about.html
Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you. KEY TAKEAWAYS The theme for this season has been all about flow, how to create it, why we should create it, and how we can bring flow into our brand and our business. If we are to create flow in our lives, in our brands, and in our businesses, we need to be thinking and behaving intentionally. Be intentional in what you say, what you do, and how you relate to others. Purpose can create flow as an emergent and adaptive capacity instead of a fixed point. There is also opportunity to achieve flow in creating shared and collective purpose.

Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you. KEY TAKEAWAYS: You can't lead others until you have a clearer sense of your own self and you're self-aware. Flow is like the wind, it's invisible but you can see and feel its effect. The world needs leaders who are strategic and constructive, that can shape and influence our future in a way that is consciously aligned with purpose and values. When you're making choices that are congruent with your values, that are congruent with your aspirations, it all suddenly comes together. A personal strategy will have an impact on the decisions you make regarding your relationships, the choices that you make at work, and vice versa. This will help you recognize the congruence and flow between the various aspects of your life and the choices you make.

Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Flow is the thread that will underpin Season 5 of the Building Brand You podcast. Being present is part of the flow, but certainly not all of it. It's about paying attention and being in “action”. We must apply four key elements of self-discipline, emotional commitment, willpower, and practice consistently and frequently in order to achieve flow.

Our guest today, Dr. Ginger Campbell has been running her Brain Science Podcast[i] since 2006, and anyone who studies the topic of Neuroscience would have come across her work, as a pioneer, where she launched her podcast all those years ago because she believes that “understanding how our brain really works is essential for being a good citizen in the 21st Century.”[ii] Watch this interview on YouTube here https://youtu.be/W6QeFM6-9lI On this episode we will learn: ✔ Podcast Hall of Fame, 2022, Dr. Ginger Campbell, host of the Brain Science Podcast: Why an MD began podcasting. ✔ Why Dr. Ginger believes that understanding our brain, is essential for being a good citizen in the 21st Century. ✔ Top lessons she has learned from hosting the Brain Science Podcast since 2006. ✔ What is that feeling of certainty? ✔ Where does intuition come in, and can we trust it? ✔ Is interoception (listening to what we feel in our body) reliable? ✔ What about solving our problems in our dreams? Is this reliable? ✔ What about premonitions? Can we trust them? ✔ Why do emotions make our memories stick? ✔ Things to consider with our thinking? We think, therefore we are wrong? ✔ How to distinguish neuroscience from pseudoscience? ✔ Dr. Ginger's thoughts on neuroscience in the field of education. Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we cover the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (for schools) and emotional intelligence training (in the workplace) with tools, ideas and strategies that we can all use for immediate results, with our brain in mind. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and educator with a passion for learning specifically on the topics of health, wellbeing and productivity, and launched this podcast to share how important an understanding of our brain is to our everyday life and results using the most current brain research. On today's episode #243, we will be speaking with Dr. Virginia “Ginger” Campbell, MD, who is a physician, author and science communicator who was just inducted into the 2022 Podcast Hall of Fame. She also runs the podcast Books and Ideas, that includes more diverse guests including science fiction writers. Dr. Campbell spent over 20 years as an emergency physician in rural Alabama, and in 2014 she went back to the University of Alabama in Birmingham where she completed a Fellowship in Palliative Medicine which is an approach aimed at optimizing quality of life and mitigating suffering among people with serious, complex and often terminal illnesses. She now practices Palliative Medicine in Birmingham, Alabama and enjoys sharing her passion for science—especially neuroscience. When I was referred to Dr. Campbell for this interview, I almost jumped out of my chair and wrote back quickly, knowing how timely our conversation would be as I was editing our recent interview with physician and neurologist, Dr. Douyon. I know that Dr. Ginger will open our eyes even further to help us ALL to connect the dots with our brain, as it relates to our health and wellbeing. Let's welcome Dr. Ginger Campbell, and get right into her thoughts about Brain Science, and see what we will learn from her deep and vast experience to help us to all take our understanding of the brain, and our health, to new heights. Welcome Dr. Ginger! Thank you for joining me today. INTRO: So, Dr. Ginger, from my email to you, I'm sure you know that I'm a follower of your work as a pioneer not only in the podcasting world, but as someone who has successfully been helping people to understand how their brain works (which is why we launched this podcast. Can you tell us where your career began, what need did you see, and how did you find your way to podcasting in those early days when I'm sure you needed to understand how to create your own code and website? Q1: Dr. Ginger, now that we have an understanding of your background, I wanted to begin our questions today by telling you how honored I am to have the leader in the field of Neuroscience Podcasts, who was recently inducted into the Podcast Hall of Fame, on our show, but then I listened to your recent episode with Batja Mesquita, on “How Cultures Create Emotions” and now I'm aware of this thing that I do, where I always open up by highlighting the talents of my guests in the back story, showing how “special” they are, or maybe what I've learned from their work, but now I know that in some cultures, this might make some guests uncomfortable to hear all this praise about themselves. I had never thought about our emotions and how they are culturally connected. What are some top AHA moments of learning for you, as the host of the Brain Science Podcast, and why do you think “understanding how our brains work is essential for being a good citizen in the 21st Century?” If someone wants to gain access to your newsletter, where you share all the show notes for your recent episodes is the best way to text brainscience (all one word) to 55444? That's how I signed up for your newsletter. Q2: So, what is that “feeling of knowing” that we have? Where does it come from when we are certain of something (an answer on a test) or when we have those AHA moments when everything clicks? What is certainty? What is that feeling? Is it an emotion? In your book Are You Sure?[iii] you look at the unconscious origins of certainty, and if PART 1, you dive into Richard Burton's work on Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not[iv] which reminds me of an interview we did with Howard Rankin[v], on his book How Not to Think and that it's always important to look at something with a different perspective, since our thinking can be wrong. What should we know about our thoughts, how we create thoughts in our brain and what should we be careful of with our thinking process? What about some questions that I know science has yet to prove? Q3: Where does intuition come in? Can we trust it, or is it also unreliable lie our thoughts and memories? Q4: What about interoception (Antonio Damasio) and is this signal that we feel from within our body reliable? Q5: I'm looking to explore this thing called certainty? What about our dreams? I can get some incredible answers to things I want to know this way, and I know you've mentioned that our dreams are one way that we can consolidate new ideas but what do you think about the validity of finding answers to our problems in our dreams? Or even flashes of insight we might see in those times before we fall asleep? (organic chemistry example—was that August Kekule, whose dream revealed the structure of benzene? Q5B: Have you ever heard of people who say they “saw” something, before it occurred almost like a premonition? Can brain science explain that? Q6: Last April, I took a stab at creating an episode on “How Our Emotions Impact Learning, Memory and the Brain”[vi] and in this episode, I wanted to explain how our emotions help memories to stick and I used the example of how most of us can tell you detail by detail of where we were on Sept. 11th, 2001. But if you were to ask me what I did on Sept. 10th, what I ate for breakfast that day, or anything about that day, it's completely blank unless I just made stuff up backtracking from what I remember about Sept. 11th. Would you say my memories of Sept. 11th are accurate, or even when emotion is added, are our memories still unreliable? Q7: What should we take away about our thinking? We think, therefore we are wrong? Q8: What about neuroscience vs pseudoscience? Is there a quick and easy way to check to be sure we have the most current research (like finding a study on Pubmed) so we stick to the research, and stay clear of neuromyths? Q9: What you have seen with neuroscience in the field of education? Q10: Is there anything important that I've missed that you would like to share? Dr. Ginger, I want to thank you very much for the work that you have done to pave the way for people like me who came to the podcasting field later, but still very passionate about learning and sharing new ideas and research, showing us that we can ALL learn something that can help us to be a better citizen, employee, parent, or even human. If someone wants to gain access to your newsletter, where you share all your upcoming episodes and the notes for each episode, a reminder for people to text brainscience (all one word) to 55444. I'll put the links for people to follow you in the show notes, and thank you again. I'm now motivated more than ever to keep learning, exploring and sharing ideas about science with the world. Thank you very much for role modeling the way, and WHI hope that you don't mind me pointing out your talents…that I saw go well beyond brain science and into technology, code, automation…but that's a whole new interview! Thank you Dr. Ginger. FINAL THOUGHTS: To close out this episode, I do hope that if you are as interested in neuroscience as I am, that you do take a look at Dr. Ginger's podcast and website. She does have a section for educators that's easy to find, with many resources. Today we learned quite a few lessons together, but my biggest take-away is that we all perceive the world in a slightly different manner, and when we don't see eye to eye with someone else (in our work environment, or our personal relationships) to remember this is our brain at work, and if we can be more tolerant of the differences we have with others, we would have less conflict in our lives. Thinking with our brain in mind really can be life-altering. I hope you've enjoyed this episode, and taken away something to help you to create more success in your work or personal life, and I'll see you in a few days. FOLLOW DR.
