EP.156 - Chatter with Ethan Kross, Author and Acclaimed Psychologist
The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters and How to Harness It
Ethan Kross is one of the World's Leading Experts on Controlling the Conscious Mind.
An award-winning professor in the University of Michigan's top ranked Psychology Department and its Ross School of Business, he is the director of the Emotion & Self Control Laboratory.
Ethan has participated in policy discussion at the White House and has been interviewed about his research on CBS Evening News, Good Morning America, Anderson Cooper Full Circle, and NPR's Morning Edition.
His pioneering research has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, Harvard Business Review, USA Today, The Economist, The Atlantic, Forbes, Time, The New England Journal of Medicine, and Science.
Ethan was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He attended the University of Pennsylvania.
After earning his PhD in Psychology from Columbia University, Ethan completed a post-doctoral fellowship in social-affective neuroscience to learn about the neural systems that support self-control.
He moved to the University of Michigan in 2008, where he founded the Emotion & Self Control Laboratory.
Emotions & Self Control Lab explore how people can control their emotions to improve their understanding of how self-control works and to discover ways of enhancing self-control in daily life.
They have adopted an integrative approach to address these issues that draws on multiple disciplines within psychology including social, personality, clinical developmental, and neuroscience.
They integrate across these areas in terms of the types of questions they ask, the methods they use to address them, and the populations that they focus on.
Ethan is the author of the National Bestseller Chatter The Voice in Our Head, Why it Matters and How to Harness it, which was chosen as one of the best new books of the year by the Washington Post, CNN and USA Today and the Winning Winter 2021 selection for Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, Susan Cain and Dan Pink's Next Big Idea Book Club.
Chatter is scheduled to be translated into over 35 languages. Ethan lives in Ann Arbor with his wife and two daughters.
In Chatter, acclaimed psychologist Ethan Kross explores the silent conversations we have with ourselves.
Interweaving groundbreaking behavioural and brain research from his own lab with real-world case studies, from a pitcher who forgets how to pitch, to a Harvard undergrad negotiating her double life as a spy.
Ethan Kross explains how these conversations shape our lives, work and relationships.
He warns that giving in to negative and disorienting self-talk what he calls "chatter" can tank our health, sink our moods, strain our social connections, and cause us to fold under pressure.
But the good news is that we're already equipped with the tools we need to make our inner voice work in our favour.
Chatter by Ethan Kross gives us the power change the most important conversation we have each day the one we have with ourselves
