Some people hate to be the first one there. Others think it’s insulting to make them wait. Which one are you?

It’s not just what you say that people hear…
One study at UCLA indicated that up to 93 percent of communication effectiveness is determined by nonverbal cues. Another study indicated that the impact of a performance was determined 7 percent by the words used, 38 percent by voice quality, and 55 percent by the nonverbal communication.
Facial expressions are responsible for a huge proportion of nonverbal communication. Consider how much information can be conveyed with a smile or a frown. While nonverbal communication and behavior can vary dramatically between cultures, the facial expressions for happiness, sadness, anger, and fear are similar throughout the world.

PART 1–TORN BETWEEN 2 LOVERS
Dear Lady Brain,
I had a girlfriend that I really loved but she broke up with me. Now I’m with someone else but I’m still constantly thinking about my ex. I don’t know which one I really love.. Help? –S
Listen in for the answer (hint: follow your heart S!)
PART 2–WHY IT’S RIGHT TO BE WRONG
There’s a new book out called “Being Wrong” by Kathryn Schulz. She explores why we find it so gratifying to be right and so maddening to be mistaken, and how this attitude toward error corrodes our relationships—whether between family members, colleagues, neighbors, or nations. Think wrongful convictions, no-fault divorce, medical mistakes, false memories, “I told you so!” to “Mistakes were made.” She believes error is both a given and a gift – one that can transform our worldviews, our relationships, and, most profoundly, ourselves.
We wanted to open up this idea—was there ever a time you were wrong and things went BETTER because you admitted it?
OR—what went horribly wrong because you didn’t admit it? Listen in and find out!

Teddy: And now an important message from Lady Brain…\
\
Lauren: Summer’s here and that means warm weather, lightweight clothing and sweat – LOTS OF IT. \
\
Steph: Do you hesitate to pull on those lightweight khakis for fear that the two-hour sales meeting will cause you break out in such a crotch sweat your co-workers will think you’ve peed your pants?\
\
Lauren: If warm, summer weather makes you sweat in not-so-convenient places like the crack of your behind, crotchal region or nads then you’re no stranger to “SWANUS.”\
Steph: Swanus is a term used to describe the sweat that builds in the crack of one’s ass and then drips, or in some cases, pours down the chute to the crotch, thereby leaving a wet spot on one’s pants or the back one’s skirt.\
\
Lauren: The principles of Swanus can also apply to other areas of the body, such as the front crotch and the breasts. It’s hideous and embarrassing, but we here at Lady Brain offer the following solutions to reduce the chances of Swanus ruining your day, or worse, your best silk dress.\
\
Steph: Step 1) Immediately after drying your freshly washed bod, always powder your buns and, ;, don’t forget your package. Powder, or corn starch, will aid in preventing the dreaded “Bat Wing.”\
\
Lauren: Step 2) Carefully consider your wardrobe choices and think about where you’ll be sitting on very hot days. Ladies should simply rule out light colored silk bottoms if the temperature is over 75 degrees. There’s nothing grosser than mistaking Swanus for another type of leak.\
\
Steph: And, folks don’t wear the tan, cotton trousers if you’re taking a lunch meeting at a restaurant with poor ventilation or outdoor seating. \
\
Lauren: Take our advice or you’re sure to be sitting in a pool of your own Swanus stew! Ew!\
\
Steph: Finally, wear underwear, mini pads or rubber pants beneath your clothes. They can help stop Swanus from becoming obvious to those around even if you’re swimming it.\
\
Teddy: The preceding was an important message from Lady Brain.

How to have a super sexy summer; how to get your mate to do what you want, how to avoid looking like an a-hole at work.
Remember when summer used to mean freedom?…From school, from parents, from schedules, from layers of clothing? And it meant romance. Warm nights, new loves, staying up til sunrise and stumbling into a diner to splurge on omelets and 10 foot high piles of toast? Now summer’s not much different from the rest of the year–never getting enough sleep, shoving a leftover crust of bread in your mouth, and juggling the entire family’s schedules, often while we’re still working ourselves. What happened to those summer lovin’ nights and warm care-free days? And why are we afraid to shed the head-to-toe clothing and sport a cute new suit (let alone go shopping for one?) Even if you’ve used up all your vacation time, you can get that summer-lovin’ feeling back–all year round– with these 4 top tips!
- Get into the mindset from before you had all those obligations
- Leave work a little early now and then. Take a half-day Friday
- Send your kids for overnights, do a swap with another family
- Sit on your front porch on a warm night and talk to the neighbors
- Get your summer reading list in order–and feel no guilt about taking time to read
- Find your inner care-free self:
- Identify and do something outside your comfort zone (kayak, surf, skydive, attempt a cartwheel)
- Make time for going out with just the girls—and don’t talk about your kids or husbands
- Pitch a tent in the backyard and sleep outside
- Locate and use the local swimming pools. Then sit in the sun, even if it’s only 15 minutes!
- Don’t be afraid to show a little skin
- Splurge on a cute bathing suit (that fits your body type), and don’t worry about whether you lost those extra pounds. You are beautiful.
- Pack up and go to the beach—and wear that new suit with pride
- Buy a low cut top to show off your cleavage—and if you need assistance, buy a push-up bra and show off your NEW cleavage
- Rediscover summer romance!
- Find time for a little summer romance– with your partner…or if you’re unattached, just go out on a limb and invite someone you’ve been eyeing.
- Create a summer playlist and listen to it–every romance has background music
- Eat outside, (even if you need to go somewhere with heaters!). The warm breeze and smells of summer will get you going
- Go on a picnic. Take off your shoes and feel the grass on your bare feet. Do another cartwheel!
- Make out with your husband in your car!
