Dr. Britt Andreatta - Is Brain Science the Answer to Your Biggest Challenges?

Dr. Britt Andreatta has a unique approach to personal growth, meeting your biggest challenges head on and more – and it involves your brain. A lengthy career in leadership and neuroscience has made Andreatta an expert on the science behind how our brains work, and that information can be used to elevate the way you approach your life, career, leadership potential and more. On this episode of FranklinCovey Education’s Change Starts Here, host Dustin Odham sat down with Andreatta to pick her brain about, well, brain science. Specifically, Andreatta said that, aside being naturally inclined to take care of basic needs like survival and belonging, we’re all wired to strive for and achieve our potential. “Where I think we get in trouble a lot is that, oftentimes, modern day things and our world, technology and workplaces ask us to go against our biology, and it doesn’t end well,” Andreatta said. “Our deepest need is [that] we’re wired to become our best selves. It’s our hunger to learn and grow. It’s our hunger to get better. It’s our hunger to achieve.” That desire doesn’t go away in the face of adversity, either. Even in the darkest moments of your life, your desire to heal and move forward and achieve the things you’ve set out to is still present, and our emotions serve as a barometer toward finding your path once again. “We all want to be seen and heard, and we all want to grow to be our best selves,” Andreatta said.
