Hidden Brain About this episode
<p>We often look down on people who complain a lot. Yet when something goes wrong in our own lives, many of us go straight to griping, grumbling and kvetching. This week. we talk with psychologist <a href="https://www.clemson.edu/cbshs/about/profiles/index.html?userid=RKOWALS">Robin Kowalski</a> about how we can complain more effectively. We'll also hear from psychologist <a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/2586671">Mike Baer</a>, who offers ways we can give better feedback to a friend or colleague who comes to us with complaints. </p><p><i>Did you catch our recent episode about the power of rituals?
