Summary

What is it about spicy food that makes some people love it and others avoid it like the plague? This episode begins with an interesting explanation and some helpful facts about hot and spicy food that could come in handy if things get too hot. http://lifehacker.com/how-to-actually-enjoy-the-painful-pleasure-of-spicy-foo-1794616828 How important is it that you do something you love? Must you be passionate about your career to be happy and fulfilled? Some people don’t really have a passion they can make a career out of. Are they doomed to be miserable? Before you try to “Follow your passion,” listen to my guest Brad Stulberg author of the book The Passion Paradox (https://amzn.to/2Bjuw4H). Bruce explains some interesting facts about what passion really is, according to the research, and just how important it is to have and then follow your passion. He is also the host of the The Growth Equation Podcast. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-growth-equation-podcast/id1505257676 If you have outdoor allergies, you may unknowingly be making things worse than they need to be. Listen as I reveal what to do and not do to help clear the air and allow you to breathe better with fewer allergy symptoms. https://midstatemedical.org/about/news-press/news-detail?articleId=42255&publicid=395 I suspect most people would agree that a happy and harmonious relationship is the best kind. Yet, it seems having a little trouble, messiness, turmoil, and chaos is also good for a relationship. Listen to my guest Ed Tronick PhD. Ed is a developmental neuroscientist and clinical psychologist at Harvard Medical School and author of the book The Power of Discord (https://amzn.to/3dHMta6). He explains why a perfectly happy relationship may actually be a prescription for trouble. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
