    60 – Strengths in Disguise: Why Your “Flaws” Might Be Your Superpower

    In this TIME FOR YOU episode, Shailia Stephens and Lea Wernli wander into a tender, funny, and revealing exploration of “limitations” — the quirks, patterns, and imperfections we often try to hide or fix. From Lea’s spontaneous, hiking-in-Sweden-without-the-right-shoes to Shailia’s highly structured world, they unpack how our so-called weaknesses often shape our style, guide our creativity, and even become our strengths. A conversation about embracing who you already are, without forcing yourself into someone else’s blueprint. But also, playing the game in the other direction if you want to.   Join Us For the "My Secret Life" Interview Series We created the “My Secret Life” interview series to share a new understanding of human psychology, making insights and change easier for everyone, no matter where they are in their journey.

    55 – Why Noticing Your Triggers Can Change Everything

    In this episode of TIME FOR YOU, Shailia Stephens and Lea Wernli dive into the theme of reactivity—those fiery moments when emotions flare and the ego rushes in to defend, argue, or lash out. Through stories ranging from everyday encounters to projects in Africa, they reflect on how the Three Principles reveal a different way: noticing reactivity without being consumed by it. With humor, honesty, and real-life examples, they share how creating space between trigger and response opens the door to compassion, clarity, and deeper connection.   Join Us For the "My Secret Life" Interview Series We created the “My Secret Life” interview series to share a new understanding of human psychology, making insights and change easier for everyone, no matter where they are in their journey.

    53 – From Activism to Evidence: Jeanne Catherine-Gray’s Journey with the 3 Principles

    In this episode, psychologist and researcher Jeanne Catherine-Gray, PhD, co-founder and CEO of Innate Health Research, shares how real-world studies bring evidence to the Three Principles. Jeanne explains how her team measures “innate health” (our built-in capacity for resilience, clarity, and connection) and tracks its impact across high-risk settings — from prisons to unemployment programs and addiction recovery. We also explore Jeanne’s activist heart: why she believes curiosity over polarization prevents harm, how small civic actions restore agency, and why lived-experience voices belong at the center of mental-health solutions. If you care about science with a soul, bridging advocacy with data, and turning insight into compassionate action, this conversation will leave you steadier, kinder, and more empowered.Innate Health Research:https://innatehealthresearch.org/   Join Us For the "My Secret Life" Interview Series We created the “My Secret Life” interview series to share a new understanding of human psychology, making insights and change easier for everyone, no matter where they are in their journey.
