@iamrichroll: My guest today is Dr. Ethan Kross, a renowned psychologist, bestselling author, and expert on controlling the conscious mind. As an award-winning professor at the University of Michigan, he directs the Emotion and Self-Control Laboratory, exploring how our inner dialogue shapes our lives. In this conversation, we explore tactical tools for mastering emotional turbulence and how to harness your mind when it feels like it’s working against you. If you ever feel shackled by this negative inner voice–the one that criticizes, catastrophizes, and sends us spiraling into rumination–this episode is a must listen.
