EPISODE NO. 12


in this episode:

Chris and Kiley delve into the basics of the brain and the behaviors and systems that govern our emotional responses: the limbic system and the pre-frontal cortex. In the conversation, you’ll learn why the limbic system is necessary for survival, but isn’t always helpful in helping us maintain our composure. If you want to be calm and in-control, you must learn to put the pre-frontal cortex in the driver’s seat.
