Episode 98 - Cognitive Dissonance

You know that feeling when something challenges your deepest held beliefs? Or maybe that feeling when you’re trying to decide between two flavors of ice cream? In both scenarios you are dealing with an experience called cognitive dissonance. Our brains are processing through situations like these almost constantly and it can be exhausting, challenging, and even world shattering.
