Любовь, секс и свидания часто считают «главной целью жизни». Однако, как часто мы в поиске любви избегаем быть наедине с собой? Как часто мы смотрим правде в глаза? Как часто создаём свой путь? И, убегая от себя в поисках любви, не избегаем ли мы, в конечном счёте, то, что вернёт нас к самим себе, что на самом деле сделает нас счастливыми?
Хайли Квинн — ведущий специалист Великобритании в индустрии свиданий. Она помогла 100 000 мужчин и женщин переосмыслить их личную жизнь.
Окончив Университетский колледж Лондона по специальности английский язык и психоанализ, Хайли основала свою собственную компанию, столкнувшись с индустрией знакомств и поработав писателем-невидимкой для героев из бестселлера New York Times «Game».
Будучи сторонницей навыков знакомств в реальной жизни, она использует свой вебсайт и онлайн клубы, чтобы показать людям, что в жизни есть более важные вещи, чем знакомства в Tinder.
Она была ведущим экспертом в многочисленных международных TV шоу и сняла документальную программу «BiCurious Me» из серии «Cutting Edge» на 4-ом канале, которая была основана на её исследованиях в области сексуальной жизни и отношений. Она также писала для «Cosmopolitan», «The Independent», «The Telegraph», а также регулярно ведёт влоги о социальных эксперементах.

Our knowledge of the brain is evolving at a breathtaking pace, and Dr. Lara Boyd is positioned at the cutting edge of these discoveries. In 2006, she was recruited by the University of British Columbia to become the Canada Research Chair in Neurobiology and Motor Learning. Since that time she has established the Brain Behaviour Lab, recruited and trained over 40 graduate students, published more than 80 papers and been awarded over $5 million in funding.

Dr. Boyd’s efforts are leading to the development of novel, and more effective, therapeutics for individuals with brain damage, but they are also shedding light on broader applications. By learning new concepts, taking advantage of opportunities, and participating in new activities, you are physically changing who you are, and opening up a world of endless possibility.

Jonathan Brickers work has uncovered a scientifically sound approach to behavior change that is twice as effective as most currently practiced methods. His new methods are driving new norms and new apps for how people quit smoking and decrease obesity, saving many people from an early death.

Jonathan Bricker is an internationally recognized scientific leader in a bold approach called acceptance and commitment therapy. A Stanford researcher called his use of the approach “a breakthrough in behavioral research [that] has major public health implications for the major causes of preventable death.” Bricker and his team, having received $10 million in total federal research grants to study this topic, are rigorously testing this intervention on multiple platforms, including smartphone apps, websites, and telephone coaching. His SmartQuit app for quitting smoking was recently launched and is now in distribution worldwide.
