I had an amazing conversation with Cosimo Intermite, a brilliant cognitive scientist, where we dove deep into the world of cognitive styles and how they shape our reasoning. Cosimo’s journey of learning English led him to develop a faster method for mastering languages, and his insights are truly game-changing.
Cosimo shared some incredible tips on how to discover your own cognitive style and improve communication with people who think differently.
