In this episode of De-Escalation Conversations, we delve into the fascinating world of neuroscience and its powerful connection to goal setting.
Kerry explores how setting clear, actionable goals not only directs our efforts effectively but also triggers changes in the way our brains operate.
By breaking down the science behind goal achievement and the role of dopamine in reinforcing positive behavior, Kerry will provide practical tips for aligning our goals with our brain's natural processes.
Drawing from real-world examples, Kerry will show you how to combat procrastination and achieve success by leveraging our brain's capabilities.
Tune in to discover how setting and achieving goals is a conversation with our brains, empowering us to reach new heights.
QUOTES:
Setting Specific Goals:
"Vague goals aren't helpful. Being specific as possible with what you want to achieve allows your brain to really set the parameters for what you're going to do. This clarity helps your brain focus on exactly what needs to be done."

The Power of the Brain's Filter System:
"When you activate the Raz, which is what you're doing with everything that we just talked about, your brain begins to focus on that and it begins to look for that information because you've just told your brain that that's important information before that it was not important to your survival."
— [00:13:49 → 00:14:04]
Understanding the Impact of Fear on Decision Making:
"When we are in Survival State, what happens is our PFC, our Pre-Frontal Cortex, shuts off electrically. It powers down and we operate from our Hind Brain, our Reptilian Brain, our Lizard Brain, and we don't make good decisions during that time."
