Join our flagship cognitive performance training.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Paul Zak. You may have heard Dr. Paul Zak’s name mentioned in the same sentence as the word “trust” before. He is the author of the “Trust Factor: The Science of Creating High-Performance Companies”.
He also wrote the “The Moral Molecule: The Source of Love and Prosperity”.
In this book, he recounts his unlikely discovery of the neurochemical oxytocin as the key driver of trust, love and morality.
In fact, Paul Zak’s research on oxytocin and relationships has actually earned him the nickname Dr. Love.
And I can tell you, Dr. Love suits Paul a ton. You're going to see why in this episode.
He is just such a fun, great guy and Steven and I had an absolute blast kicking it with him when we were recording this episode.
In today's episode with Paul, we draw on the ideas that underscore the work that he has done with everyone from the Pentagon to Fortune 50 companies to working with tribes in the rainforest of Papua New Guinea.
We talk about everything - from how to dump more oxytocin into your brain, to tools needed to become a high trust leader as well as the difference between faith and trust from a neurobiological perspective.
We go broad, and we go wide on the topic of trust, and how it relates to flow and peak performance. It’s a super fun one.
And we really began to hit our stride about halfway through the episode. So make sure that you stay tuned until the end.
