Today’s discussion is with Rick Hanson who is a psychologist, Senior Fellow at UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center, and New York Times best-selling author of seven books including his recent one, Making Great Relationships: Simple Practices for Solving Conflicts, Building Connection, and Fostering Love.  Today’s conversation is fascinating and wide ranging. We look at the role that vulnerability plays in professional relationships, the causes of stress and anxiety and what actually happens in your body when you experience these things, how to control negative feelings when they arise, and recognizing and challenging the assumptions that we have of others and of ourselves. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Cornerstone.
