Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is the University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University and holds appointments at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, as the Chief Science Officer for the Center for Law, Brain & Behavior. She is also the author of How Emotions Are Made and, more recently, Seven and a Half Lessons about the Brain, an accessible book about science that she considers “the first neuroscience ‘beach read.’”  Today’s episode invites you to explore the origin of your emotional intelligence. Consider that most of our life is lived inside of our head. Our brain creates our mind which controls our actions, which determines the kind of person that we are. Dr. Barrett’s research reveals that we actually have more control over that process than we think or feel we do.
