Psychologist and bestselling author Ethan Kross breaks down the science of *chatter*—the internal voice that can either empower or paralyze us. Drawing on decades of research in neuroscience and emotion regulation, Kross explains how introspection, while powerful, can often backfire, leading to rumination, anxiety, and impaired performance.In this conversation, Kross explores how our inner voices are shaped by parents, culture, and adolescence—and how we can take control through deliberate tools and techniques. He unpacks the emotional chaos of teenage years, the benefits of aging on self-regulation, and why older adults tend to be happier. He also discusses the dangers of toxic positivity, the importance of acknowledging negative emotions, and the underrated power of normalization in helping people understand they’re not alone in their struggles.This episode offers a clear, evidence-based roadmap for anyone seeking to calm their inner critic and build a healthier, more productive relationship with their mind.
