In the ninth episode of our ongoing conversation, Sarah and I dive into the neurobiology behind why some people say things such as, “I don’t miss people.” Processing emotion as an adult is based on the households we grow up in, wired by how we were raised. Many people feel sorrow and joy less deeply than others, cruising with stable cortisol levels and less self-awareness, because their brain has insulated itself to protect against their own feelings. These people often become our workhorses: dependable co-workers, functional leaders and political appointees, but not our creative thinkers and imaginative brains. Sarah and I explore how corporations can move away from the robotic functions brought by these types of individuals, and discuss the grief and self-soothing in response to detached actions such as layoffs.
