One Brain, Two Minds: The Angel and Devil On Your Shoulders

There’s a fairly well-known TV trope—especially in cartoons—that pops up when someone is wrestling with temptation; two miniature versions of the character’s self, an Angel and a Devil, sit on each shoulder and try to pull the character in different directions.

Psychologists often say it this way: we have ONE brain with TWO minds, and they rarely (IF EVER!!) agree with one another.

That matters, because the constant battle between the two can wreak havoc in your life. In this episode, I take you on a tour of the neurobiology, how it impacts you on a recurring basis, and even a secret weapon you can use in the fight!
