In this episode, we're delving into the groundbreaking book "How Emotions Are Made" by the renowned author and neuroscientist, Lisa Feldman Barrett.

Join us as we explore the paradigm-shifting insights provided by Dr. Barrett in her book. We'll take a journey into the heart of emotions, challenging conventional wisdom and shedding light on the inner workings of our emotional experiences.

In "How Emotions Are Made," Dr. Barrett presents a revolutionary theory that turns the traditional understanding of emotions on its head. She argues that emotions are not hardwired into our brains but are instead constructed in real-time by our brains based on our sensory inputs, past experiences, and cultural context. It's a theory that has the potential to reshape how we think about our emotional lives.

In this episode, we'll discuss:
