FEATURED EPISODE

The Neuroscience of Human Relationships – Part I: The Power of Fear

with David Rock

Modern life pushes our brains in ways they were never built to handle. In this episode, Dr. David Rock, neuroscientist, bestselling author, and the creator of the SCARF model, joins host Matt Levinger to reveal why fear, uncertainty, and social threat so often hijack our thinking. Together, they unpack the hidden neural patterns that shape how we collaborate, lead, and respond to conflict, and explore practical tools for staying intentional in a world full of noise. This fast, insightful conversation sets the stage for a powerful two‑part series on fear, love, and how understanding the brain can help us work together more effectively.
