Is new always better? Instead of always chasing the newest thing, is there not a way that you can appreciate the people and possessions already in your life?

In this new episode Steven sits down again with leading neuroscientist, Dr. Tali Sharot.

Dr. Tali Sharot is the director of the Affective Brain Lab and Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London. Sharot’s research combines neuroscience with the study of behaviour and psychology to examine how emotions and motivation lead to people’s beliefs and decisions. She is the author of the award-winning books, ‘The Optimism Bias’ and ‘The Influential Mind’.
