How to Be More Charismatic & How Modern Genetics is Changing Everything

A person’s first name can have a profound effect on their life. Listen as I describe how people get preconceived ideas about you based on your name - some good, some not so good. And how your name can help to shape who you are for the rest of your life. https://www.theifod.com/how-does-your-name-shape-who-you-are/ When someone with charisma walks into a room, you can see it right away. We are attracted to charismatic people. But what makes someone charismatic? Listen as my guest Vanessa Van Edwards, breaks down the elements of charisma and explains how all of us can exude more of that special quality that people find so attractive. Vanessa is founder and lead investigator at Science of People (https://www.scienceofpeople.com), she is a renowned speaker and author of the book Cues: Master the Secret Language of Charismatic Communication (https://amzn.to/3vFoLZ0). What science has discovered about genetics and DNA in the last few decades is nothing short of astonishing. Consider that it wasn't all that long ago that we started using fingerprints as a crime solving tool. Today DNA evidence is helping to solve decades-old cold case crimes with incredible precision. Plus, we now know so much about our genes and how they relate to health that it is revolutionizing medicine. Joining me to explain all of this is Dr. Joshua Rappoport. Joshua is a cellular biology expert who teaches at Boston College and is author of the book Mapping Humanity: How Modern Genetics is Changing Criminal Justice, Personal Medicine and Our Identities (https://amzn.to/35RY6wT). Could there really be legitimate health benefits to shopping? Listen as I describe one study that equates shopping with working out.
