Seeing the System Clearly: Women on Power, Culture, and Leadership
Power changes what you see. Culture changes how you’re treated, and systems rarely look the same from the inside as they do from the top.This episode brings together women leaders who have spent years building, operating, and deciding inside real organizations. Across industries and roles, the pattern is consistent. Leadership is not neutral. Culture is not objective. And value is often created in places the system does not fully recognize.These conversations are not about confidence or personal branding. They are about how power distorts reality, why culture becomes invisible to those who be...

The Gift of Generosity
What can we learn from "the giving of gifts" that might help us understand the REAL meaning – and perhaps the biological importance – of generosity? This episode explores how gift-sharing seems to have its roots in stress-reducing, even survival-serving emotions (ones that may date back millions of years!) rather than the fraught and often unsatisfying transactions we enact today. You'll learn about healthy neurochemicals and brain patterns associated with altruistic generosity and those that may rise from how we often see "gifting" today – and peek at why neuroscience research may miss the mark when it seeks to measure what RE...

Getting Unstuck
Here's the truth. I've been stuck. Trying to understand why by looking to the brain? Nothing worked. And then I stumbled across another organ that offered a clue – and a perspective – about why we get stuck and how to get out of it. This one's short and simple. Yet it's set me on my way to what comes next: things that give me (and hopefully you) hope, understood through the lens of the brain...and beyond.Thank you for being here.

More Than Skin Deep with Grace Gold
Beauty, it turns out, is in the brain of the beholder. Research looking to pin down the correlates and functions associated with "experiencing beauty" so far leave scientists wondering where and how the the whole beauty thing happens.

Today's guest, Grace Gold, is an expert in that industry and the players and products that shape it. Which makes it even more refreshing when she explores beauty as something far beyond the reach of even the best products – an expression of...
