Left brain, right brain


Listen Later

I want to share with you this concept of left brain and right brain thinking because I feel like it's really influenced me to become the person that I am today. This concept states that we predominantly use the left or the right side of our brain, and depending on how we're wired, this informs our personality. If you're a left brain thinker you're more interested in logic, mathematics, planning and strategy. The right side thinkers are more working from a place of imagination, creativity, rhythm and intuition.

From a young age, I felt as if I was very much a left brain thinker. I always had to have a plan, a goal and something that I was working towards. There had to be a reason behind my actions and the thought process was very structured. My father is the same. He is great at anything pertaining to logic, but when it comes to social cues or creative pursuits - this was never his strong point. My mother on the other hand has always been a very creative thinker, intuitive and feeling more than thinking, as is my brother.

What I wanted to explore was whether you could incorporate both sides to achieve more balance and tap into the areas that perhaps you're less inclined to follow naturally.

In this episode I talk you through the journey that I've taken to find the areas of myself that I knew could be unlocked but required exploration in order to develop.
