Stop saying you’re stupid - we don’t even know what intelligence is

28m | Jul 15, 2022

Episode 82

This episode is a breakdown of the science behind intelligence and why we know so little about what it takes to make a "genius". We delve into the history of the IQ tests to find out why they are so faulty and such poor representations of human intelligence. Julia talks about her journey with insecurity around being "smart" which is a very common struggle in the academic space and suggests a new way to approach our thinking abilities.
