In today's episode of Motivational Mondays, we will explore the science behind Dr. Rebecca Heiss' new book, Instinct: Rewire Your Brain with Science-Backed Solutions to Increase Productivity and Achieve Success. 

Dr. Heiss specializes in helping clients break through ingrained inclinations that can hold them back from success by teaching skills like self-reflection and self-awareness. As an evolutionary biologist, she says that humans are ancestrally programmed to be overly cautious.

To help people overcome their fears, Dr. Heiss shares that it’s okay to be inquisitive in life and stop feeling like you have to be an expert. You don’t have to prove yourself to anyone.

You’ll learn why our brains are programmed for fear, how to rewire your brain to let it go, and how to become more self-aware.
