Please meet my old friend, Dr John Medina, a "developmental molecular biologist with special research interests in the isolation and characterization of genes involved in human brain development and the genetics of psychiatric disorders" and the author of the Brain Rules books.

In this series (The PB&J project), John and I explored the intersection where coaching skills, behaviors, and presence, meet with the research behind why our brains like those things!

In other words, in this series, John and I collaborated to talk about our endless and ?shared curiosity about human RRBs (i.e. Ridiculously Relational Brains).
