Novelty and Seeking Growth Beyond Comfort; Reflections from Sri Lanka

Welcome to RESONANCE. I'm your host, Michael Trainer.
For 30 years, I've traveled the world learning from the best minds in neuroscience, healing, and human potential—from traditional wisdom keepers to Nobel laureates, from elite performers to researchers at the cutting edge of brain science.
What I've discovered: we've been optimizing the wrong thing. Peak performance isn't about doing more—it's about connecting deeper.
RESONANCE explores the science and soul of transformative connection. Why some conversations change us while others leave us empty. Why certain relationships heal us while others drain us. What I call "the More"—that unmistakable quality when two minds truly meet.
This show brings you the insights of the world's leading thinkers on connection, neuroscience, and what it means to be fully human in the 21st century.
