Today we’re talking nerdy about the neuroscience of lying and telling the truth. In this solo episode, Alex is diving into why lying evolved from an evolutionary perspective, what is happening in your brain when you lie to yourself or others versus telling the truth, the psychological value of self-deception, and how to get better at detecting when others are lying to you.
Alex is also going to share more about the vow of honesty she took 7 years ago and how it dramatically changed her relationship with others and herself.
Before you dive in, I would love it if you could hit pause and leave us a 5 star review and a written review on whatever platform you’re listening on. In doing so, you help get this podcast into the ears and brains of more people like you.
