Welcome to the Adventures in Uncertainty Podcast …
The podcast is an ever expanding STORY of the neuroscience of uncertainty … a story of exploration and expansion … and at times of a personal story into uncertainty.
My name is Beau Lotto and I’m a Neuroscientist and Founder of the Lab of Misfits.
My hope is that you’ll walk away knowing less since nothing interesting begins with knowing. It begins with not knowing.
My second hope is that going to the very place your brain evolved to avoid: Uncertainty, you’ll understand more about how and why you see what you do. Since it’s only by increasing your perceptual intelligence that you’ll be able to take agency in your own brain’s process of making sense of yourself, of others of the world around you .
Otherwise everything you do will continue to be a reflex grounded in someone else’s biases.

EPISODE 11: LIVING IS AN EXERCISE OF LIVING
We don’t train and then live. We train by living.
We don’t overcome our fear of uncertainty and then step into it. We don’t first overcome our pain before stepping forward. We get in shape along the way through the exercise of living. Adventures are hard and at times we get sore and lost in mind, spirit and body.
In this time of COVID we’ve all seen - and indeed throughout history we are here because of … those who stepped forward … first. Into the fire … first. Into the protest for the freedom and dignity of others … first. Into compassion within conflict … first. Today we call some of these people ‘first responders’, who risk themselves every day for an anonymous other in a time of pandemic. Others we call parents, teachers, friends and lovers (at least when done beautifully).
We know from neuroscience that we will all go further if it’s for the benefit of another. The Lab of Misfits has shown that you’ll even endure more pain if the endurance benefits another brain more than your own.
