In this episode, Joe Sanok speaks with neuroscientist Dr. Tali Sharot about the fascinating science of the optimism bias—our brain’s natural tendency to expect the future to be better than the present. Together, they explore how optimism can motivate us, improve health, and build resilience, while also considering its downsides, like underestimating risks. Dr. Sharot shares how optimism can be developed over time, even by those who lean pessimistic, and offers practical advice for private practitioners on using emotions effectively in the therapy room.
