Keeping Secrets

Об эпизоде

<p>We all carry secrets, from harmless omissions to life-changing truths. But secrecy isn’t neutral: hiding takes mental work and can harm our health and relationships. In this week’s show, and in our episode next week, psychologist <a href="https://www.lesliekjohn.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Leslie John </a>explores the costs of concealment — and how opening up can give us more mental space and deepen our connections.</p> <p><i>After you listen to today's episode, check out our Hidden Brain+ conversation called "When to Hide the Truth." In that episode, we talk with Leslie about when and where it may be best to withhold information.
