Summary

Ann and Sue are back for another deep dive, this time on all things information processing. Using the concept of sunglasses as a metaphor for information distortion, they explain how our internal working models and attachment experiences shape the way we perceive and interpret information. The sunglasses represent different states of activation, with clear glasses indicating a secure state and aviator sunglasses representing a defensive, self-protective state. Sunglasses can affect our relationships - but they don't have to stop us from building healthy connections. Follow along as we explore the importance of curiosity, self-reflection, and open-mindedness in navigating relationships.

0:56.6	because they feel vulnerable.

1:02.2	And we need to be able to see both parts.

1:46.8	neurobiology and to be able to be in a meeting with them live. It's going to happen. Now's your chance. We are going to have a meeting on May 1st.
1:57.2	But it's not a meeting, it's a celebration, right? It's a book launch party.
