Everyday Joe: Whole-brain flow, strong adult executives, goal-
focused for many individual skills, lots of precise speech and future visioning, plus back-of-brain stuff
typical of introverts.
Meditative Joe: Whole-brain flow, weak goal-focused executive,
mostly open-ended, strong links to personal identity and beliefs, attend
to voice tone, and high body/kinesthetic awareness.
