Description

In an attempt to change the way information is presented, we’ll be speaking to researchers, experts, and all round wrinkly brained individuals, making them simplify what they have to say and in turn, hopefully, improving our understanding of a broad range of topics rooted in psychology. Join us as we try to develop ourselves, one brain fold at a time.Instagram: @thesmoothbrainsociety TikTok: @thesmoothbrainsocietyYoutube: @thesmoothbrainsocietyFacebook: @thesmoothbrainsocietyThreads: @thesmoothbrainsocietyX/twitter: @smoothbrainsochttps://linktr.ee/thesmoothbrainsociety
