Your Brain: Left vs. Right
Left brain. Right brain. Structure and common sense vs. creativity and big picture. With our special guest (and Karen’s niece) Jacqueline, we’re talking about understanding left vs. right, where our strengths lie, and how to exercise the “other side.” We’ll also share how relying too much on one side of the noggin can keep taking you down a bad path and why there’s a huge benefit to coming at tough situations with the WHOLE brain.

Watching the ball drop on December 31, 2019, who could have predicted the year ahead? Why didn’t Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen warn us?!
Hordes of people packed into Times Square to celebrate the start of our next journey around the sun (Can you even imagine being that close to anyone anymore?!).
Those happy revelers were (like most of us) oblivious of what was to come.
