0:00:14.916 --> 0:00:23.876
<v Speaker 1>Pushkin has stel Changers Maya here. I'm thrilled to share

0:00:23.916 --> 0:00:26.556
<v Speaker 1>We've got new episodes of A Slight Change of Plans

0:00:26.556 --> 0:00:30.716
<v Speaker 1>for you. You'll hear from guests who've navigated extraordinary changes

0:00:30.716 --> 0:00:35.316
<v Speaker 1>in their lives, like John Elder Robeson, who undergoes experimental

0:00:35.356 --> 0:00:39.596
<v Speaker 1>brain stimulation to increase his emotional sensitivity. The thing I

0:00:39.836 --> 0:00:44.076
<v Speaker 1>had always wanted was to feel like I was a

0:00:44.116 --> 0:00:47.876
<v Speaker 1>normal person. And Chaparral Wells a mom who takes on

0:00:47.916 --> 0:00:51.036
<v Speaker 1>the role a private investigator to find out the truth

0:00:51.156 --> 0:00:54.836
<v Speaker 1>about her son's death. It wasn't by choice, I had

0:00:54.876 --> 0:00:58.436
<v Speaker 1>no other option. We'll hear from riz Ahmed, an Oscar

0:00:58.556 --> 0:01:01.756
<v Speaker 1>nominated actor, on how finally playing a role based on

0:01:01.836 --> 0:01:05.716
<v Speaker 1>his own life changed his understanding of himself. Up until

0:01:05.716 --> 0:01:08.476
<v Speaker 1>his point as an actor, I'd become adept to molding

0:01:08.516 --> 0:01:12.476
<v Speaker 1>mosques and wearing them for other people, and I realized

0:01:12.556 --> 0:01:14.916
<v Speaker 1>the next stage of growth is about taking them off.

0:01:15.476 --> 0:01:18.916
<v Speaker 1>An Amanda Knox, she was wrongfully accused of murder and

0:01:19.036 --> 0:01:22.356
<v Speaker 1>is now trying to reclaim her identity. I continued to

0:01:22.356 --> 0:01:25.396
<v Speaker 1>be defined not by the things that I've done, but

0:01:25.556 --> 0:01:28.996
<v Speaker 1>instead by the one thing that I didn't do. We'll

0:01:29.076 --> 0:01:31.556
<v Speaker 1>hear from experts about how the science of change can

0:01:31.596 --> 0:01:35.316
<v Speaker 1>help us make better decisions and live happier, more fulfilling lives.

0:01:36.076 --> 0:01:38.316
<v Speaker 1>And I'll also turn the mic around and share with

0:01:38.356 --> 0:01:41.396
<v Speaker 1>you something that recently happened in my personal life. When

0:01:41.436 --> 0:01:44.876
<v Speaker 1>I was thrown my own slight change of Plans, my

0:01:44.956 --> 0:01:47.476
<v Speaker 1>heart sank. I was like, you have got to be

0:01:47.556 --> 0:01:52.316
<v Speaker 1>kidding me, How is this happening again? It it didn't

0:01:52.356 --> 0:02:02.676
<v Speaker 1>make any sense. I'm Maya Shunker, and this is a

0:02:02.676 --> 0:02:05.516
<v Speaker 1>Slight Change of Plans, a show about who we are

0:02:05.716 --> 0:02:19.756
<v Speaker 1>and who we become in the face of the big change.
