ABOUT THE PODCAST:
Every day our amazing brains automatically and subconsciously collect evidence from the world around us. They collect evidence of what is and isn’t safe, what works and what doesn’t, and what’s important and what’s not – all to help us survive and navigate the world.
Our brains are better and faster at collecting negative evidence than positive, though, and the over-collection of negative evidence often causes us to believe things that aren’t useful. What, if anything, can we do to change that?
