Is your ability to read people secretly being sabotaged by your memory?
In this episode, we dive deep into the hidden connection between working memory and behavioural intelligence. Backed by cutting-edge neuroscience and cognitive psychology, we explore how your memory capacity impacts your ability to observe, interpret, and respond to others.

You'll learn:

• Why behavioural intelligence depends on memory scaffolding

• The cognitive traps caused by weak working memory

• How executive functions like inhibition and flexibility shape real-time behavioural analysis

• Whether memory training really improves your people-reading skills

• What neuroscience reveals about your brain’s behavioural prediction circuits

Whether you're in leadership, security, investigations, or simply want to think more clearly and connect more accurately, this is the missing piece you've been overlooking.

This episode isn’t theoretical.

It’s personal. Very personal.

Something happened this week involving my daughter that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. It shook me. And yet, I found myself confronted by the very thing I teach: emotional regulation, critical thinking, and behavioural intelligence, not in a classroom, but in real life, where it counts.

Everyone expected rage. Violence. Retaliation. And I’ll be honest, those thoughts were there. But instead of reacting, I chose to think. Not because I’m above anger, but because I’m committed to protecting the people I love with clarity, not chaos.

In this episode, we get int into the mindset it took to navigate that fire. We’ll explore the neuroscience of emotional control, the cost of binary thinking, and how to use Holmesian principles when your instincts are screaming for blood.

This isn’t about being clever. It’s about being clear-headed when it matters most. And it’s a reminder that thinking like Sherlock Holmes isn’t just an intellectual exercise, it’s a survival skill.

Let’s get into it.

In this episode, we dive into The Analyst’s Toolkit — exploring the powerful mental quadrants of instinct, intuition, logic, and reasoning. Whether you're in behavioral analysis, executive protection, investigations, or just fascinated by how elite thinkers operate, this toolkit is essential.

We break down:

🧠 What instinct really is and how it hijacks or helps

🌫️ Why intuition feels like magic (and when it isn’t)

⚖️ How logic organizes chaos into clarity

🧩 When to use deductive, inductive, and abductive reasoning

🔬 How to apply all of these using the lens of behavioral intelligence

If you've ever asked:

“Can I trust my gut?”

“Is this logic or just bias?”

“What’s the difference between instinct and intuition?” …this episode is your blueprint.
