On today’s episode, Chris sits down with neuroscientist and bestselling author Lisa Feldman Barrett to discuss how the brain constructs emotion, perception, and thought in real time.

They explore the concept of the predictive brain, why the “lizard brain” theory has been debunked, and how the brain’s primary role is regulating the body. Lisa also explains how past experiences shape what we see and feel, why emotions are constructed rather than hardwired, and how these ideas impact mental health, performance, and human behavior.
