In this episode of The Woo & Science Podcast, Dr. Michael and Meaghan Longyear welcome special guest Cathy Goldstein, AP for a heartfelt exploration of what truly makes us feel connected—our ability to perceive and respond to facial expressions.This isn’t a conversation about appearances. It’s about how subtle, moment-to-moment cues in the face shape our relationships, regulate our nervous systems, and lay the foundation for trust. Together, they discuss how recognizing and interpreting facial expressions supports both mental and cognitive health—and how this awareness creates the conditions for deeper human connection.From the gentle power of eye contact to the shared resonance of a smile, this episode invites you to consider the profound ways we understand and heal through face-to-face presence.Interested in working with the Longyear's?
