I’m so glad you’re here to be a part of it.īB: Before we jump in, I want to tell you a little bit about Maya. How do we get back up? How do we figure out who we are without that path, and how do we start building a new way to walk through the world? It is just truly a meaningful conversation. We’re so sure-footed in fact that we’ve built identities around what we’re accomplishing and what we’re doing, and all of a sudden life happens and we’re not just knocked down on the path, we’re knocked completely off the path. Maya Shankar, a cognitive scientist, and we are talking about everything from the science of change, what it means to lead, we’re talking about love, and what we’re really digging into is what happens when we are so sure-footed on our path.
I have a really beautiful, powerful conversation for you on this episode. I’m Brené Brown, and this is Dare to Lead. Now on her podcast, she interviews famous and fascinating guests about the major changes they have seen in their lives, through the lens that only a behavioral scientist with her background could apply.īrené Brown: Hi, everyone. She has been profiled by the New Yorker and been the featured guest on NPR’s “All Things Considered,” “Freakonomics,” and “Hidden Brain.” She is the host of the podcast A Slight Change of Plans, inspired by a major change in her own career path when, at the age of 15, she suffered an injury to her hand that ended her concert violin career-one she had fostered under such greats as Itzhak Perlman, and at the Juilliard School. from Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship, and received a B.A. Maya completed a postdoctoral fellowship in cognitive neuroscience at Stanford, got her Ph.D. She also served as the first behavioral science adviser to the United Nations, under Ban Ki-moon, and as a core member of Pete Buttigieg’s debate preparation team during his presidential run. Maya Shankar, Ph.D., is a cognitive scientist who served as a senior adviser in the Obama White House, where she founded and served as chair of the White House Social and Behavioral Science Team.
