Do you feel like you show up as different versions of yourself depending on the situation? Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor introduces the four characters in every brain: your structured and organized self, your emotional self, your creative genius and your consciousness. Tapping into the potential of the whole brain, Bolte Taylor shares how to give each character space and voice so you can live your fullest life. (This conversation, hosted by TED current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers, was part of an exclusive TED Membership event. Visit ted.com/membership to become a TED Member.)
