Social Soup

Michelle chats with Curtis Sprouse, founder of behavioral science company EurekaConnect and the Institute for Biomedical Entrepreneurship.

Michelle and Curtis have deep conversation about leadership, behavioral science, and personal growth. The two explore how traits can be developed over time, and the mental game of competition. They also look at how to lead with self-awareness, and what it means to show up intentionally during life’s most stressful moments.

Other topics include unpacking how the mind reacts to fear, how sports teach us to fail forward, and why sometimes a small act of kindness could change someone’s life.
