Unvetted guest?

Generally a fan of the show. Very disappointed in the last show. Little to no knowledge of neuroscience.

Deep dives

Andrea’s messages are always so interesting. This is one of my top 2 podcasts ( along with The One You Feed, Andrew Zimmer) Earlier this year she did a deep dive into the classic Think & Grow Rich, one of my favorites from my early days in finance career. Now - the Silva Method - thank you, thank you. It’s wonderful to revisit these in depth. Happy New Year, to you, Andrea. Faithful listener

Consistently Learning & Implementing SEL Strategies

As a school leader, I love listening to Neuroscience Meets Social Emotional Learning. I am passionate and committed to creating a sense of belonging and a safe, trusting and nurturing learning environment for all my students and staff so that they can thrive and reach their fullest potential. Each week I learn new strategies, tools and research based actions I can take to implement strategies and learn tools to support the the SEL in my school.

Every Leader Needs This

First off, let me say… although this podcast is about neuroscience, Andrea curates the show to be applicable and easily understood by anyone! Not just the neuroscientists. As a CEO and Executive Trainer, I found that Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning provides actionable tips to build resilience, recharge your energy, and face challenging workplace situations. Andrea guides guests to the conversations that matter by asking the right questions. I have studied applied neuroscience in the past, and I find that Andrea's show consistently brings up new angles that no one talks about. Give it a listen and you won't be disappointed!

Amazing Show if you want to learn about Neuroscience

Andrea does a great job of bringing on experts of neuroscience and pulling information from that that is actionable and useable. Highly suggest giving her show a listen and subscribe for future episodes. Keep us the great work Andrea!

Program your brain to work for you, not against you!

We can train and shape our brains to handle emotional and social experiences in a way that best supports the life we want to have - less stress, more resiliency, and the ability to pull positive out of almost any experience. Andrea Samadi has a wide range of expertise in using proven neuroscience techniques to help us shape our brains. Imagine what we'd be capable of knowing these things early in life! Andrea's mission to bring this knowledge to school children has the potential to make a massive impact on our world. She also strives to introduce and master these techniques in business environments to improve productivity and develop inspired teams that strive for growth and symbiosis. I highly recommend checking out her podcast to make your own life, your business life, and your children's lives, less stressful, more enjoyable and productive.
