March 27, 2024 Fear Setting with Kibwe Cooper
Can you believe it! Build A Brain has hit episode #50. To celebrate, I brought back your favorite, Kibwe Cooper, to discuss “Fear Setting”.
The brain responds to fear with many specific reactions that can include shutting down, running away, fighting back, or freezing up. That’s OK if the stimulus is a lion, tiger, or bear. But how about just a modern-day challenge, like starting my own business, going to a new college, or moving across the country? Tim Ferriss created a novel method of working through our fears. Listen in to how Kibwe and Jeanne break it down so you can build it up again!

Welcome back Build A Brain friends! We are honored to bring you an intriguing interview with Msgr. James Gilg, a Catholic priest who became a principal at Father Flanagan High School, named for the founder of Boys Town, in Omaha, Nebraska. He successfully led the implementation of our famous Feuerstein program. The school, began in 1982, was envisioned as a haven for nontraditional high school students, the school catered to students who’d dropped out, became parents, worked full-time or otherwise didn’t achieve in traditional high schools. What an idea!
Stay for the end of the interview and listen to Msgr. Gilg's rap lyrics! Priceless!
