Episode 1 - Why We Wonder
Today, we’re peeling back the layers of our minds to uncover the science behind curiosity: why some people wonder about everything, while others… don’t. We’ll explore the neuroscience of curiosity, what curiosity does to our brains, how our personalities and environments shape it, and why some of us think in technicolor while others prefer black and white and why unanswered questions feel so uncomfortable, and what makes some people natural explorers. Plus, we’ll wander into how curiosity links to creativity and thinking styles.
