Summary
What if we came to see the hardest moments in our lives as a chance to reimagine who we can be? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Maya Shankar, cognitive scientist and author of the new book The Other Side of Change , to unpack how we can reframe change when life makes other plans. Maya shares the science behind why change feels so unsettling and what actually helps us move forward. This conversation is filled with research-backed tools to help you navigate uncertainty, build resilience, and shift your mindset so you can grow through change rather than get stuck in it.
