Decoding Your Emotional Source Code with Dov Baron
In this episode of Changing Minds, I speak with Dov Baron, one of the world's top leadership thinkers, to unpack the power of the Emotional Source Code, our emotional DNA that drives every decision we make. We explore why logic always bends to emotion, the difference between belonging and fitting in, how vulnerability builds trust, and how leaders can create cultures of healthy belonging instead of division. We also dive into identity, meaning, transformation, and why sometimes you have to let the old you burn to rise as the phoenix.
