UNLOCK YOUR BRAIN with Dr. John Kelly

 

If no two brains are the same why do our schools, universities and work places treat everyone “equal?”

That’s the question Dr. John Kelly has spent his 73-years on earth answering. In today’s conversation we chat about:

  • How he transitioned from being a medical doctor to the world of learning

  • The eight types of “smartness” each brain has

  • (And how most don’t match up with the education system)

  • Losing his wife suddenly in 1997

  • Starting a hospital in Uganda

  • His ground-breaking research into the brains of entrepreneurs

  • The dangers of living in a left-brain society

  • And how you and I can unlock our brains by honing in on our unique, biological learning style.

Check it out.
