What if intelligence isn’t a fixed score, but a story you get to keep rewriting?

If you’ve ever felt underestimated, overlooked, or boxed in by labels, this episode will help you rise above them and unlock the brilliance within you.

Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman was once placed in special education and told he didn’t belong in “gifted” programs. Yet today he’s one of the most respected cognitive scientists of our time. His journey proves that labels—“broken,” “disabled,” “not smart enough”—don’t define your destiny.

In this powerful conversation, Scott and I explore how to rethink intelligence, potential, and even Maslow’s famous hierarchy. You’ll discover why IQ tests miss the most important parts of your mind, how neurodiverse traits like ADHD and dyslexia can be hidden superpowers, and why self-actualization isn’t about climbing a pyramid—it’s about learning to sail your own ship.

By the end, you’ll see that your potential is not a number. It’s not predetermined. It’s a moving target you can expand every day with passion, perseverance, and belief.
