Description

Award-winning researcher and pioneering psychologist Brian Little has plenty of accomplishments under his belt. He’s the author of the bestselling books “Me, Myself, and Us” and “Who Are You, Really?” His TED Talk on the science of personality and what makes you, well, you, has tens of millions of views. From 2002 to 2004, he was elected a Favorite Professor by the graduating classes at Harvard. And he’s also Adam’s favorite psychologist – and personal mentor. Brian and Adam talk about what fosters human personality and well-being, discuss the nuances of introversion versus extroversion, and explain how our personalities, and ultimately our well-being, may be sustained through life’s big – and small – endeavors.
