- A Secret Source of Connection
- Description
- <p>We all have moments in our lives when we see someone who could use a helping hand. It could be a friend who recently went through a breakup, or an older person trying to load groceries into their car. We tell ourselves we should help, but then something stops us. This week, psychologist <a href="https://lerner.udel.edu/faculty-staff-directory/amit-kumar/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Amit Kumar</a> helps us understand what keeps us from taking a moment to be kind, and how to overcome these barriers to create stronger, happier connections. Then, on Your Questions Answered, psychologist <a href="https://www.yorku.ca/lamarsh/gord-flett/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Gordon Flett</a> returns to respond to listener comments about the importance of feeling that we matter. </p> <p><i>Have you ever heard someone describe themselves as "left-brained" or "right-brained?"
