Wisdom comes with age. That’s a common belief – but is it necessarily true? Can you acquire wisdom when you are young? This episode begins by looking at the science of wisdom, where it comes from and when it shows up. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8493820/

Doesn’t it seem like the world is safer? Cars are safer, equipment is safer, people wear helmets, warning signs are everywhere. So it makes sense to believe that we are safer today than ever before but that’s not true according to my guest. Steve Casner is a research psychologist and NASA scientist. He is author of the book, Careful: A User's Guide to Our Injury-Prone Minds (https://amzn.to/4j74GjN). Listen as he explains how and why accidents have been getting worse lately.

While you have surely done things in your life that required courage, you can probably recall other times when you wished you had the courage to do something differently – to speak up, to make a move, to do something! But you didn’t. How can you be courageous when you need to be? Listen to my guest, Jenny Wood. She is a former Google executive, speaker, and airplane pilot. Her writing has been featured in Harvard Business Review, Entrepreneur, Inc., and Forbes. Jenny is author of the book Wild Courage: Go After What You Want and Get It (https://amzn.to/4iNpYCJ).
