Description

Katherine Templar Lewis is a creative scientist, who specialises in neuroscience and neuroaesthetics. Katherine is also part of The Uncertainty Experts, who have been running interactive experiments exploring how people navigate feelings of uncertainty.


We all experience uncertainty throughout our lives, whether you’ve just graduated university, lost your job or simply don’t know what the future holds - fear of the unknown can be debilitating.


In part one, Katherine joins Dr Alex George to discuss why we need to reframe what uncertainty is, the three metal processes that make up uncertainty and how we can unlock our full potential by embracing discomfort…


Plus, Katherine unpacks the different types of uncertainty we experience and explains how we can start to change our relationship with it.
