In this episode, psychologist and researcher Jeanne Catherine-Gray, PhD, co-founder and CEO of Innate Health Research, shares how real-world studies bring evidence to the Three Principles. Jeanne explains how her team measures “innate health” (our built-in capacity for resilience, clarity, and connection) and tracks its impact across high-risk settings — from prisons to unemployment programs and addiction recovery. We also explore Jeanne’s activist heart: why she believes curiosity over polarization prevents harm, how small civic actions restore agency, and why lived-experience voices belong at the center of mental-health solutions. If you care about science with a soul, bridging advocacy with data, and turning insight into compassionate action, this conversation will leave you steadier, kinder, and more empowered.Innate Health Research:https://innatehealthresearch.org/   Join Us For the "My Secret Life" Interview Series We created the “My Secret Life” interview series to share a new understanding of human psychology, making insights and change easier for everyone, no matter where they are in their journey.
