A person’s first name can have a profound impact on their life. This episode begins as I describe how people instantly get preconceived ideas about you based solely on your name – some good ideas and some not so good. It seems your name can shape who you are for the rest of your life. https://www.theifod.com/how-does-your-name-shape-who-you-are/
Some people can just walk into a room and exude charisma. I am sure you have seen it happen. People are attracted to charismatic people. But it is sometimes hard to figure exactly what makes someone charismatic. Listen as my guest Vanessa Van Edwards, reveals the ingredients of charisma and explains how anyone can express more of that quality that people find so attractive. Vanessa is founder and lead investigator at Science of People (https://www.scienceofpeople.com), she is a sought after speaker and author of the book Cues: Master the Secret Language of Charismatic Communication (https://amzn.to/3vFoLZ0).
What science has discovered about genetics and DNA in just the last few decades is amazing. Remember it wasn’t all that long ago when we started using fingerprints as a crime solving tool. Today DNA evidence is helping to solve decades-old cold case crimes with incredible accuracy. Plus, we now know so much about our genetics and how it all relates to our health. Joining me to discuss this is Dr. Joshua Rappoport. Joshua is a cellular biology expert who teaches at Boston College and is author of the book Mapping Humanity: How Modern Genetics is Changing Criminal Justice, Personal Medicine and Our Identities (https://amzn.to/35RY6wT).
Could it be that shopping actually has health benefits? Listen as I describe one study that equates shopping with physical exercise.
