OM DENNE EPISODE
Hello, Protagonists!
Welcome to another episode of the Creative, Inspired, ALIVE podcast—where we go behind the scenes with the storytellers shaping our culture.
Our next guest, Donna Jackson Nakazawa, is an award-winning science journalist and an internationally-recognized speaker whose work explores the intersection of neurobiology and human emotion. Her book, Girls on the Brink: Helping Our Daughters Thrive in an Era of Increased Anxiety, Depression, and Social Media, was named a best book of 2022 by The Washington Post. Her latest book, Mind Drama: The Science of Rumination and How to Outwit Your Inner Defeatist, is out now.
Today, we talk about:
* rumination - what to do about the negative looping stories in our heads,
* protecting space in our brain for creative insights,
* the creative process of non-fiction writing,
* among other delights!
xo, Joanna
